Nightmare Songtext
Sticks and stones may break my bones, words killed me long ago
Ever since I heard the word "enough"
I see people walking, taking stride
I learned every man is mad with pride
Built on a love for the lie
Power is the meaning of life

And I'm dying for something new
Why can't we change the world when we can change the truth?
They'll say, "Boy, keep on dreaming", it's all this boy can do
Tryna dream myself out of this nightmare

Old ways bringing me to tears
Don't cry for death, it's just a fear
Something that you made up in your head
Work me till you break me down
Retire once I'm in the ground
Just to replace me when I'm gone
Yeah, it's the same old song

And I'm dying for something new
Why can't we change the world when we can change the truth?
They'll say, "Boy, keep on dreaming", it's all this boy can do
Tryna dream myself out of this nightmare

And I wonder if there's something wrong with me
They're screaming at me through my television screen
I just wanna live my life, oh, say can you see
Can you see?
And I'm dying for something new
Why can't we change the world when we control the truth?
They'll say, "Boy, keep on dreaming", it's all this boy can do
Tryna dream myself out of this nightmare
