scrulove - Dream First

My Mum handed me the phone on my birthday, said it was Reggie Kray
To her he was a legend, I sipped my Lemonade
And said Mum I'd rather be free
I know Police would stop my friends that are much darker than me
Why do we celebrate people coming out of prison, more than we celebrate graduations
That shit is backwards in my estimations
I'm not qualified, Maybe I'm not road enough to draw the blinds
Maybe that Reggie Kray reference was way before your time
But I know, I don't wana play the systems game either
Knowledge and wealth but we normalise killing so we gain neither
We have racist politicians in charge
Who won't do a thing about it as long as all we're killing is ours
We have leaders in charge, who admitted they snort coke
But arrest you for selling crack, that's the law of the poor folk
Set up a system that's designed for the rich, to take away from the poor then they act like its your fault
It's another day make it work
Baby don't forget who you work for
Yeah you could be worse off
Put your dreams first cause you're worth more yeah
Put your dreams first
Put your dreams first
Put your dreams first
Dream first ask questions last I mean
Dreams can come true
