LYRICS
When I was young I just wanted to dream
I wanted Rollie wrist uh, I wanted all the fame
I grew up in church and they told me to pray
I’m giving god the praise, Cause I wanted all the grace
Anybody had a problem with me told them I’m running all the fades
Anybody saying that I’m just dreaming I tell them I do it awake
Wait wait
I got a problem with faith so I put it all on plate
I got a problem with God so I been forgetting to pray.
I just wanted to express wasn’t thinking bout money
Now I don’t even text I’m afraid of the public
And God don’t talk to me I wonder if he love me
It’s like my prayers left on seen I wonder if he dubbed me
Since I was young I had questions about my faith
I always wondered if I died would I make it through heavens gates
A product of my pride ima own up to my mistakes
Exchanging money for time is never the way to make it
Tap back into the dreams you had when you was young
Way before the people around you made you think you was dumb
Cause they was scared of your success, you ain’t lucky boul you blessed
kill the noise and chase a check you never needed them
Now I got A presidential Rollie, I don’t need to run
Plus I really got it on me I don’t need to run
Ima heathen plus I’m holy I’m a preachers son
Tryna live my dreams in real life like when I was young
-It’s WHOAMI?
Unleash Your Inner Child to Unlock Your Purpose
In this podcast, I introduces my self-discovery journal aimed at helping listeners identify and operate in their purpose. I explains the importance of having faith and works for success and encourages you to reconnect with your childhood dreams to regain their faith. I also touch on the idea of success and materialism and remind you not to give up your purpose in pursuit of material things. I pull from the book of James from the Bible and emphasize the importance of faith producing good deeds.
Why I Wrote It?
I wrote this song because I miss being a kid. I miss the feeling that the world was mine to take over. When we were younger we all had that child-like ambition. I swore to myself when i was a kid that i would never be like “them”… The dream-killers. The ones who tried to change my limitless attitude on life. So with this song I went back to reflect on my childhood.
