JV - Dream Again (Heart Sing) Lyrics

They told me I should lay down
They told me I should hush my mouth
I shouldn't say what I wanna say now
They told me I'm reaching too high
They told me you got enough so like why try?
Why you always wanna go above?
Why you wanna mess it up for people thats like us?
Why can't you be happy with what you got?
Why you gotta be on top? Why you always gotta dream?
Why always gotta be captain just of the dang team?
Why you always gotta do you?
Why you gotta be number one instead of settling for number two?
I mean you already good, that's wazup
If your account in the green, yea that's a plus
Okay so you got your degree, all you need is your family
And your the American dream. What else do you want or need?
It don't take all that, Why you make it harder?
Why you read all that? It don't make you no smarter
Why you up so early?
It's what I call preparing for the next chapter
And paving the way for those who coming after
You so focus on living you can't live
Yo so focus on keeping you can't give
You so focus on hating you can't love
You so focus on sleeping you can't dream
You so satisfied with the same things
Tell me when the last time your heart sang
Tell me when the last time your heart sang
Yeah I wanna know
It's funny when you speak the truth they can't comprehend
And since they feel like they're the man they can't shake your hand
Like they got here all by themselves
Please, I know when someone's living off daddy's wealth
Like they had to build new relations & connections
It was all passed down like that collection
I ain't hating I'm just saying can you stop flexing
And admit that you don't know what working hard and stressing
And stretching for your next blessing
While your skipping through life your missing its lessons
I'm not saying your lessened
I'm just saying if your faith hasn't been through the testing, test then
If you haven't had trials then what are you hoping?
I just thank God I still got something to trust in
Cuz life never really ends
It's just new beginnings
You so focus on living you can't live
Yo so focus on keeping you can't give
You so focus on hating you can't love
You so focus on sleeping you can't dream
You so satisfied with the same things
Tell me when the last time your heart sang
Tell me when the last time your heart sang
Yeah I wanna know
Now they see him walking to the table
Little did they know he was able
This whole time, taught he was a servant
And could've sworn he fulfilled his purpose
The one they chose to use and abuse
The one they knew was just doomed
One with the least amount of skill
But the one with the greatest amount of will
Is the one that you've been waiting for all alone
As sits next to the father on the throne
And the father finally says
Son welcome home
And the father finally says
Son welcome home
You so focus on living you can't live
Yo so focus on keeping you can't give
You so focus on hating you can't love
You so focus on sleeping you can't dream
You so satisfied with the same things
Tell me when the last time your heart sang
Tell me when the last time your heart sang
Yeah I wanna know
