In All Honesty
Dreams are broken everyday
It seems mine only last one breath
Before tested by the harsh rays of reality
Hope floats some say, but I doubt its distance
As another bites the dust despite its resistance
Jagged and broken the remains land somewhere beneath my feet
Atop of the pile of floatless hopes popped in previous defeat
I watch in sadness though dreams don't matter much
Without a plan to carry out the action
Yet so many have a dream then relish in satisfaction
Although their efforts lack the passion to see it thru
Then empty minds cause empty palms
Facing up in confusion for work to do
The reality is that we cause our own poverty
Though most try to blame everyone but self
Yet in all honesty we don't want to work
We want to be handed wealth
It seems mine only last one breath
Before tested by the harsh rays of reality
Hope floats some say, but I doubt its distance
As another bites the dust despite its resistance
Jagged and broken the remains land somewhere beneath my feet
Atop of the pile of floatless hopes popped in previous defeat
I watch in sadness though dreams don't matter much
Without a plan to carry out the action
Yet so many have a dream then relish in satisfaction
Although their efforts lack the passion to see it thru
Then empty minds cause empty palms
Facing up in confusion for work to do
The reality is that we cause our own poverty
Though most try to blame everyone but self
Yet in all honesty we don't want to work
We want to be handed wealth
