Lyrics
The God of dreams
The deity associated with dreams.
Ooh ooh
Expressive sounds or exclamations, possibly emphasizing the concept introduced in the first line.
Have you ever, kept yourself awake in the late night
Reflecting on staying awake during the late hours.
Basking in the thoughts of hope and fear
Engaging in deep contemplation, balancing between optimism and apprehension.
You see all you are and who you're gonna be
Perceiving one's identity and future self, hidden from others.
But no one else can see
The uniqueness and potential of an individual not visible to others.
Come alive, spirit come alive
An encouragement for the inner spirit to come to life.
I didn't believe I could fly, now I'm soaring
Personal growth and achievement, overcoming disbelief and reaching new heights.
He was broke, with no where to go
A person facing destitution with no clear path.
Angel in disguise held him up, he was chosen
An unidentified helper supporting the destitute person, suggesting a sense of divine selection.
She was smart, with an aching heart
A intelligent individual burdened with emotional pain.
But she saw herself going far, and she prospered
A vision of future success and prosperity despite challenges.
Anything you want you can achieve, just believe yea yea
A universal message that anything is achievable through belief.
You got that fire, you got desire (ooh)
Recognition of personal strength and ambition.
You got that vision, all in your eyes (yea yea)
Acknowledging one's clear goals and aspirations.
They wanna hold ya, try to control ya
Warning against external attempts to manipulate or influence.
They want you ignorant to keep you in the trench yea yea
Highlighting the desire to keep individuals uninformed and oppressed.
Ooh
Expressive sounds or exclamations, possibly emphasizing a significant point.
God gave you a glimpse of what your life could be
Divine insight into the potential future.
Faith or fear but there ain't no in between
Emphasizing the importance of choosing between faith and fear.
When I lay me down to sleep (when I lay)
A bedtime reflection on life's purpose.
I open my heart to receive what God sees (ooh)
Opening oneself to receive the perspective of the divine.
And if I should die before I awake
A prayer for the preservation of dreams even in death.
I pray that my dreams won't die with me
Expressing the hope that one's dreams will endure beyond life.
I want to die empty
A desire to live a life without regrets, fully realizing one's potential.
Come alive, spirit come alive
A repetition of the call for the inner spirit to awaken.
I didn't believe I could fly, now I'm soaring
Reiteration of personal growth and belief in newfound abilities.
He was broke, with no where to go
Recalling a past state of destitution and the intervention that changed the course.
Angel in disguise held him up, he was chosen
Reinforcing the idea of divine selection in helping those in need.
She was smart, with an aching heart
Acknowledging intelligence and resilience in overcoming emotional challenges.
But she saw herself going far, and she prospered
Visualizing personal success and prosperity despite emotional hardships.
Anything you want you can achieve, just believe yea yea
Reaffirming the universal message of achieving anything through belief.
You got that fire, you got desire (ooh)
Recognizing individual strength and passionate drive.
You got that vision, all in your eyes (yea yea)
Acknowledging clear vision and aspirations in one's eyes.
They wanna hold ya, try to control ya
Warning against external attempts to manipulate or influence, repeating a theme from earlier in the lyrics.
They want you ignorant to keep you in the trench yea yea
Reiterating the desire to keep individuals uninformed and oppressed.
Ooh
Expressive sounds or exclamations, possibly emphasizing a significant point.
God gave you a glimpse of what your life could be
Reiteration of divine insight into the potential future.
Faith or fear but there ain't no in between
Emphasizing the binary choice between faith and fear.
