Atmosphere - Dreamer lyrics

Your rating:



She gotta condition of the heart a heart condition

So as a kid she had to adapt to smarter livin'

Not much room to rebel because of health

No drugs no booze just kiss and tell

Well known on the scene jailbait queen

Had the first baby barely eighteen

Father of the child was after one thing

When the daughter came the dad was unseen

It don't matter he ain't got a job

So she had to go work

And leave the baby with her mom

Second shift 'til the neck is stiff

But she worked it and built her own nest to live

Soon after that baby's daddy

Lazy bum with no cash

He wanna come over and crash

He wanna play his part

So she let him move into that garden level apartment

She knew better she did it anyways

Explain better when you're tryin' to see some better days

The sun's up catch those rays

Butterflies now who's got chase?

But she still dreams after she woke tight hold on that hope

Sometimes it can seem so cold do what you gotta do to cope

Two years later two months pregnant

Same daddy same broke ass situation

This time the doc said her heart might break

Praise god that the job got her health benefits straight

She believes in the right to choice

But she loves baby girl and she wants a boy

Makes more nowadays on the day shift

Balance that with night classes

Take some time and space and make it all fit

The apartment they now live in is overcrowded

Raised her voice and made her point

Told that boy go get employed

He put on his best shirt

Said he wasn't comin' back 'til he gets work

She knew what that part meant

So she swept ever y piece out that apartment

Peace out keep out take the scenic route

Rather only hafta feed three mouths

She adapts to everything now

And nobody asks what she dreams about

But she still dreams after she woke tight hold on that hope

Sometimes it can seem so cold do what you gotta do to cope

Little girl was her first reason to breath

And her little man was the first man she believed in

She gotta live right and do right by self

She do for self she don't want your help

Afraid of being alone

But fear ain't enough to knock her off of that stone

Gonna make that home a home

With or without a man that she can call her own

Big boss at work is anxious

Continues to hand her the wrong advances

She passes the test she knew the answers

Quit the job to go take a chance with life

This is life we all strain

While we pray for dollars and we work for change

It's all the same we all struggle

Sometimes you gotta say fuck you

When you smile and she doesn't return it

Give her room and don't disturb it

If it makes it hurt less to curse and fight

Go ahead and hate the world girl you earned the right now

But she still dreams after she woke tight hold on that hope

Sometimes it can seem so cold do what you gotta do to cope
