NO DREAMS lyrics

(Chorus - The Blue)
Nobody dreams these days
We've been trying to reach the world with these songs we play
Doubt's a broken record spinning on replay
Live a life doing what we love is all we pray, ey, ey
Nobody dreams these days
No little hands reaching up to outer space
Haven’t hit the track, already lost this race
Nobody dreams these days

(Verse 1 - The Blue)
We're taught to stay in a lane before we find ours
We've all got gifts, I wish we'd see them as divine powers
They all go to waste, taught young to extinguish the flame
And at the end, we've all got nothing to claim
Whatever you find in this life, do it with all of your might
Because when the clock runs, you're getting no second chance at the fight
Find what makes you happy, that's a cliche
But never let them put your fire out like an ash tray
Never let them downplay
Your efforts and all the heights that you're destined to see
About to make good on all the faith I invested in me
Settling could cost you all your joy, just check the receipts
Know external voices sometimes look to crush and mislead
Keep your head up no matter what you choose to pursue
Don't get caught up in their doubt as you move
Just imagine your potential can exceed what even you could conceive
Sometimes all you've got to do is believe
I know it's hard to believe

(Chorus - The Blue)
Nobody dreams these days
We've been trying to reach the world with these songs we play
Doubt's a broken record spinning on replay
Live a life doing what we love is all we pray, ey, ey
Nobody dreams these days
No little hands reaching up to outer space
Haven’t hit the track, already lost this race
Nobody dreams these days

(Verse 2 - Geeze)
Nobody dreams these days
Wait, why’s fate so tainted
Confused because you don’t recognize the picture you painted
Of what life would be like if things break right
But now it’s faded and laced with that cadence of hatred
Potential that’s wasted because you stopped believing
Can’t compare yourself to someone else’s achievements
You support the scene and the scene supports your dreams
But your friends don’t seem to see what happened in between
It’s that hard work, yard work, pulling out them weeds
And the farther you go, gets harder, give up on dreams
But I’m blessed to be less than keen
To let success mean less to me
Because I don’t reach that peak
Memories I keep, sold out shows in Brooklyn and Manhattan
Our music video’s on Much music, people laughing
I proved to my town you can pursue music with a passion
That’s why when I watch dreams lose, it’s got me asking
How come

(Chorus - The Blue & Geeze)
Nobody dreams these days
We've been trying to reach the world with these songs we play
Doubt's a broken record spinning on replay
Live a life doing what we love is all we pray, ey, ey
Nobody dreams these days
Too afraid to tell your parents it wasn’t a phase
You can’t go out on a limb in case you fall on your face
We ridicule anyone who dares to dream these days
