(Shadow dreams Dreams of a shadow) [Intro] The an*logy of a shadow dream Dreams are to shadows as your shadows are to your dreams In the deepest of the darkness it seams as though they're gone In the light they are visible Yet intangible and illusive Your shadow is the true validation of the fact that you exist Hence shadow dreams And here we go [Verse 1] Shadow dreams they seem so distant But the light is strong and no you can't resist it Keep on pushing, hold out your hand But light is your friend go on in ?Caroline? Its always darkest before the light Nothing's worth having if its not worth a fight No love without labor, no labor no love Draw on the strength bestowed from above What can go wrong will go wrong But if you fall off a horse just get back on "I have a dream" the man stated A shadow dream that he chased to his grave Just because a dream is lurking in the shadows Doesn't mean that you should just forget it I mean, you work and you push and you sweat And you toil and you strive and drive till you get it: shadow dreams [Chorus] Shadow Dreams Dreams of a shadow (Shadow dreams) Shadow Dreams Dreams of a shadow [Verse 2] Every dark cloud is hiding a silver lining But don't forget to mobilize, keep on climbing Do all you can to keep your shadow alive Because you're not far behind if your shadow dies Make sure you stop and you check tonight That your shadow is behind you when you walk through the light Cause a man without a shadow ain't a man at all I mean, I take it just for granted that my homies on the wall Kids see the shadows and they wanna play But sometimes their stolen, taken away Adults are the thieves, the kids get robbed Throw away that shadow boy go and get a job Just because the dream is lurking in the shadows Doesn't mean that you should forget it I mean, you work and you push and you sweat And you toil and you strive and drive till you get it: shadow dreams [Chorus] Shadow Dreams Dreams of a shadow (Shadow dreams) Shadow Dreams Dreams of a shadow [Verse 3] Fourteen years old I used to want a beamer I guess you could say I was what you'd call a shadow dreamer I told my father that I didn't think I'd ever get in I said: "I might as well just forget it" My father said: "Son, don't be talking so dumb Hard work and education makes anything come And plus a shadow dream ain't as far as ya seem son You used to be a shadow dream" Life is a mystery but lets check history To see how many peoples shadow dreams came true And if the other peoples shadow dreams are equal Then why can't the next shadow dreamer be you? That's the philosophy I live my life by When things get hard through the stress and strife I Keep on pushing with a full head of steam Like a train through the tunnel to my shadow dream [Chorus 2x] Uh ha Shadow Dreams Dreams of a shadow...
