Asher Roth - His Dream lyrics

Your rating:

(feat. Miguel)
[Verse 1: Asher Roth]

He leans back from his desk

Rubs the back of his neck, the stress takes effect

Grips the bridge of his noise

Squints while he's showing emotion he normally won't

At 56, he re-evaluates

Possibly regretting some decisions that he's made

Black is turning grey, patches of his age

Reflecting from the glasses of passive of every page

Passionately Dave reads, reading on occasion

Dreaming of the day when he can do the same thing

He's always wanted to write, that's all he's wanted in life

With two daughters, a son and a remarkable wife

He's in a bind, he has to provide

A family is relying on a millie to survive

His father died at 56

So he's well aware how vital a father figure is

How big of a responsibility it is

To be a good husband and care for your kids

Never miss an event, helping them with their homework

Discipline to prevent things when they're older

His only son is only 21

And focus as a poet has only just begun

Papa isn't dumb, he understands what this means

His dream is my dream, my dream is his dream



[Chorus: Miguel]

I close my eyes and I can see (His dream)

The sacrifices he made for me (His dream)

Put it aside for his family (His dream)

Yeah, so I'ma keep it alive, Yeah



[Verse 2: Asher Roth]

And so he targeted to be the dream guardian

Guarding it from anything and anyone whose harming it

But in his heart, he knows the hardest thing about it is

Giving up on his dream to be all about his kids

As he kisses the lips of the misses

For 24 years going on the 25th

He thinks to himself, this alone is a wealth

It's greater than what's bought and then sold on the shelf

Sometimes a dream is all that we have

We have to continue to dream

Cause once it is lost amongst other thoughts

Then what really are we, what are we?



[Chorus]



[Verse 3: Asher Roth]

So he sits back at his desk

Cracking his knuckles and back of his neck

Faxing a paper displaying his name

On another application explaining the main

Things they should know but the things that they don't

Are the things that distinguish him as an adult

And over the phone, he can never expose

The role that he chose, the role in his home

And at home, he's a leader, a father

He'll prove it by using his son and his daughters

In their life, he'll be playing the part of

The one who inspires, the one we admire

His only son is only 21

And focus as a poet has only just begun

Papa isn't dumb, he understands what this means

His dream is my dream, my dream is his dream



[Chorus]
