Just A Dream

by Ly Cai   Feb 21, 2006


Sometimes I dream about life when we are strong, when we don't have to hide. No use in crying, no more pain to carry on. It's just a dream so I live in the dark.

Yo,
See I once had a dream at a very young age
That when I'm getting older I'd be rocking a stage.
I wrote ma heart of this page.
Try to think and understand,
I made it from some hard times when nobody can.
And I'm still a young lady trying to live out my dreams.
Hustling for crap just me and my team
And I know they don't see the time and effort that I put out.
I'm out being lonely as that's what ma poem's about

I'm not the celebrity's best
I'm not the strongest or the tallest
I'm not specially dressed
I just give it my all

I hold it down never run from my people.
But they critic me. Hating me, hate with disrespect.
But I take it like a man
And move to bigger plans.
I work and see what life brings.
And I'm never quite the poet, I say it and it's true.
I just speak from ma heart. I ain't different from you.

So many times I want to quit But i tell myself no
Cause they're always a better place
Wherever I go
to finally show
a piece of ma mind
to the eyes of the weak, to the eyes of the blind.
I don't do this for myself, I don't get nothing in return
I don't make a dollar, but there's nothing to earn.
But I'm still giving move from times I can not breathe.
My music poem touches heart in ways you can't believe
And that's what I need to hold and carry on.
When there's nothing to hold I'll hold ma heart in a song.
And my tears make people strong
So why would I stop
Just because a bunch of haters just hope that I drop,
Hope that I pop.
Not knowing my part
from morning to dark.
And I do it for the ones that life without a choice.
I live for the people that speak without a voice.
