Atmosphere Dreamer Lyrics

Dreamer Lyrics

She got a condition of the heart

A heart condition

So as a kid she
had to adapt to smarter living

Not much room to rebel because of
health

no drugs, no booze, just kiss and tell

well known on the
scene

jailbait queen

had the first baby barely eighteen

father of the child was after one thing

when the daughter came the dad
was unseen

it don’t matter he aint got a job

so she had to go to
work and leave the baby with her mom

second shift till the neck is
stiff

but she worked it and built her own nest to live

soon after
that baby’s daddy slash lazy bum

with no cash he want to come over and
crash

he want to play his part

 so she let him move in to that
garden level apartment

she knew better—she did it anyways

explain
better when your trying to see some better days

the suns up catch those
rays

butterfly style who’s got chase



chorus:

but she
still dreams after she woke

tight hold on that hope

sometimes it
can seem so cold

do what you got to do to cope

Two years later two months pregnant

Same daddy same broke ass
situation

This time the doc said that her heart might break

Praise
god that the job got her health benefits straight

she believes in the
right to choice

but she loves baby girl and she wants a boy

makes
more now a days on the day shift

balance that with night class 

take some time and space and make it all fit

the apartment they now
live in is overcrowded

raised her voice and made her point

told
that boy go get employed

he put on his best shirt

said he wasn’t
coming back till he gets work

she knew what that part meant 

so she
swept every piece out that apartment

peace out keep out

take the
scenic route

rather only have to feed three mouths

she adapts to
everything know 

and nobody asks what she dreams out



Chorus
X 2



Little girl was the first reason to breathe

And the
little man was the first man she believed in

She gotta live right and do
right by self

She do for self she don’t want your help

Afraid of
being alone 

But fear aint enough to knock her off of that stone

Gonna make that home her home 

with or without a man that she can call
her own

big boss at work is anxious 

continues to hand her the
wrong advances

she passes the test 

she knew the answers

quit
the job to go take a chance

with life

this is life we all scream

while we pray for dollars and we work for change

its all the same, we
all struggle

sometimes you gotta say fuck you

when you smile and
she doesn’t return it

give her room and don’t disturb it

if it
makes it hurt less to curse and fight

go ahead and hate the world girl
you’ve earned the right
