"I Had A Dream"

If you wanna lead be a leaderIf you wanna dream be a dreamerClimb to the top of that mountain and scream itBut remember when you get to the topEverything you say is gonna matterEverything you do is gonna add upIt's what you asked forSo don't get mad when it's not what you thought

Careful now girl with them jezebel waysFell on your head, but you're queen of clichesLittle one playing with the big boys nowHope you're ready when it comes back around

I had a dream that we were moreA generation to beholdLighting fires with our wordsInstead of useless smoke that blursThe lines of right and wrongExpression that lives onAn army with a songThat lingers when we're goneI had a dream

If you wanna preach be a preacherIf you wanna teach be a teacherRemember that the footprints you're leaving will tell us all who you really areIt's too bad you can't see what you're worthSpreading your legs instead of using your wordsCharacter is shown by the things that we doThe one thing you're never gonna hide is the truth

'Cause anyone can sell when they're selling outAnd anyone can fly when they're falling down

I had a dream that we were moreA generation to beholdLighting fires with our wordsInstead of useless smoke that blursThe lines of right and wrongExpression that lives onAn army with a songThat lingers when we're goneI had a dream
