He grew up on the wrong side of town
Drug sights under street lights, where hearts run colder now
He went to school to find a way to get out
But the teacher said you might as well try the lottery son
But he never wavered on his goals
No he never wavered on his goals
This dreamer's gotta dream, so keep on dreamin'
Find your purpose, stand your ground, fight the lies and the reasons
And when you look back, I know you'll find me dreamin'
Of the sweet lights of fireflies in the wind
She grew up in a nice place the world was her oyster
She would change the world, she had no other plans
Well life changed and her daughter came and goals got convoluted
She could've lost her way depending on the path that she'd take
But she never wavered on her goals
No she never wavered on her goals
This dreamer's gotta dream, so keep on dreamin'
Find your purpose, stand your ground, fight the lies and the reasons
And when you look back, I know you'll find me dreamin'
Of the sweet lights of fireflies in the wind
This dreamer's gotta dream, so keep on dreamin'
Find your purpose, stand your ground, fight the lies and the reasons
And when you look back, I know you'll find me dreamin'
Of the sweet lights of fireflies in the wind
