Dreamers Lyrics - Soundtrack To Struggle - Lowkey

[feat. Mai Khalil] 

[Intro:] 

This one is dedicated to the dreamers 

Most people see things that are there and ask why 

Dreamers, see things that aren't there and ask why not 

I'm dreamin' with you 

[Verse 1:] 

I once knew a girl who on the surface was as solid as a rock 

Future full of promise and mind seemed stronger than an ox 

Face of beauty and a tongue was as honest as it got 

That wasn't what is was, problem rock bottom she was lost 

I couldn't see this sweet genius was full of secrets 

Full of demons that pulled her deeper in this pool of leeches 

Confused by the news, I was bruised when they told me 

It concludes to the truth, was she consumed by the loneliness? 

She was a true queen, nothing like Elizabeth 

Often caught her starin' into space with a distant look 

Considerate but detached from others even when intimate 

Now I'm searchin' for answers I'd never find in a book 

Last time I saw her, before the day she took her life 

I wish I fixed her pain, I shoulda, coulda, woulda tried, 

But I took it personally and turned to leave, 

And to this day I'm still haunted by the words she screamed... 

[Hook:] 

Sometimes I really really hate myself 

Sometimes I wish that I could change myself 

Sometimes I don't wanna give no more 

And sometimes I just don't wanna live no more 

Sometimes I don't know where to go for help 

Sometimes I don't really know myself 

Sometimes I wish that I could fly away 

And find away to a brighter day 

[Verse 2:] 

They say that life is a question and death is the answer 

But Niko lost his brother and Rewds lost his father 

God bless your souls please know that I love you both 

They say time heals but the pain still doesn't go 

I've seen my brother die and seen my mother cry 

Seen the wind change in the flutter of a butterfly 

Seen people get sectioned for life, I think and wonder 

A small twist of fate, that could've been my brother 

25 years a life could say thus far 

I always have wondered who the same ones are 

Though I live by the words fear not I'm afraid 

When I wrote this so many tears dropped on the page 

It's mad how death always manifests in the weirdest ways 

Won't go near the grave but in my dreams he appears the same 

Then I get closer and see his face, it's clear as day 

He looks me deep in the eyes and I hear him say... 

[Hook:] 

Sometimes I really really hate myself 

Sometimes I wish that I could change myself 

Sometimes I don't wanna give no more 

And sometimes I just don't wanna live no more 

Sometimes I don't know where to go for help 

Sometimes I don't really know myself 

Sometimes I wish that I could fly away 

And find away to a brighter day 

[Repeat]
