Dream Sequence Songtext
von Apathy

Now there are all kinds of ideas that would be fun to believe in
Metal telepathy, time travel, immortality
You know for fifteen years I′ve been looking
For these damn silly lights in the night sky
I've never found any, I sure wish I had


Lately I′ve been on some other shit, mothership
Dreams of returning to my planet where I'm running shit
'Cause this Earth′s so poisonous, cancerous
Praying to a God who′ll never answer us
Maybe it's a dream if I scream will I wake now?
Maybe it′s the Matrix or a nervous breakdown
Every medication that I take is a mistake now
'Cause the pharmaceutical industry is a shakedown
Maybe I should quit rapping, I ain′t having fun
I got a beautiful daughter, I'm ′bout to have a son
I tell 'em that I had more defeats than battles won
Teach 'em when to stand their ground and when they have to run
I swear to God that I′m crying while I′m writing this
How can a sinner try to teach an angel righteousness?
Off balance, fuck musical talents
Tryna kill my demons was always the greatest challenge
And I don't even need the Holy water
I just need to hold my daughter
Looked up to the sky just to show my father
Look at this dad, not too bad
I don′t even mean to brag but
Who'da thought the child would be walking with the giants?
Mentioned with the legends
Life′s too short so I measure it in seconds
Try to stay present, teach my kids lessons
Dream when you sleep and to enter other dimensions

I don't want to wake up from this dream if it′s without you
All of the stars and the moon are
Lined up in the sky so I could find you
I don't want to wake up from this dream if it's without you
All of the stars and the moon are
Lined up in the sky so I could find you


Yeah, the older you get, the faster the time goes
I chose to stop living life with my eyes closed
No blindfolds, bad vibes, we can survive those
Liquor and live shows, burning bridges like pyros
Taking the high road ′cause I came from the trenches
The world on my back, feeling strained from the tension
Opinions never mattered so I paid no attention
Always hurting feelings but it ain′t my intention
I ain't chasing no likes or praise on the ′gram
Too busy making new life and raising a man
I gave my son my music rights, now it stays in the fam
Been sober two years, I'm never getting wasted again
If you know me then it′s hard to believe
But you don't know how I felt when I heard my son starting to breathe
Tryna purify the stream before I water my seeds
Still wear my heart on my sleeve but it′s harder to see
'Cause truth is I ain't been the same since my dad died
Almost OD′d, y′all ain't even seen the bad side
Real life shit hit me harder than a landslide
Understand that life′s like tryna juggle with your hands tied
I'm breaking the chain of pain and addiction
Still tryna change the way my brain was conditioned
So I just stay in position, no losing or fading
I don′t do this shit for fame, I do it for Brayden
I'm saying

I don′t want to wake up from this dream if it's without you
All of the stars and the moon are
Lined up in the sky so I could find you
I don't want to wake up from this dream if it′s without you
All of the stars and the moon are
Lined up in the sky so I could find you

A few million years ago, we humans took our first steps there
Our brains grew and changed
The old parts began to be guided by the new parts
And this made us human with compassion and foresight and reason
But instead we listened to that reptilian voice within us
Counseling fear, territoriality, aggression
We accepted the products of science, rejected its methods
Perhaps one day there will be civilizations again on Earth
There will be life, there will be intelligence
But there will be no more humans, not here, not on a billion worlds
