Dream Killa: Unveiling Life's Struggles with Don Gramur's Powerful Message
Lyrics
I heard the systems a dream killa
The systems are destructive towards dreams.
Fearful that the brother man becomes the mean nigga
There's a fear that the Black man becomes a hostile or aggressive figure due to these systems.
Saw we had a small chance so we dream bigga
Despite limited opportunities, there's an ambition to dream bigger.
My people the lights. Now the whole scene lit up
The community shines brightly; they're visible and prominent.
Though we will never switch up
Despite circumstances, they remain loyal and consistent.
It's our time to ball. They threw offers tryna pitch us
It's their moment to succeed; they've been approached with opportunities.
Workin the machine. They were always tryna glitch us
They've been working within a flawed system that consistently caused issues.
Tryna set us up to fail. Summa fall, but they get up
Efforts were made to ensure failure, but despite setbacks, they rise again.
We tryna winta spring forward. Thrivin wit our fist up
Striving to progress and succeed despite challenges.
Truth is. Life was up and down like some chin ups
Life's been fluctuating between highs and lows, similar to chin-up exercises.
And I was still fixing up my plate. Late dinna'
The speaker was dealing with personal issues even at mealtime.
Waiting on the day that the foul/file gets rendered
Waiting for justice or resolution in a pending matter.
But who is pointing fingers if the crowd been sinners
People who accuse have their own history of wrongdoing.
Some days. My vibe would ring high like a tenor
Some days, the speaker's mood was extremely positive.
And sometimes. A sunny day would feel like December
Occasionally, even good days felt cold and unpleasant.
But I was always tryna be a brother to remember
Striving to be a memorable and influential figure amidst adversity.
While they tried to condemn us. Now Im gon represent us
Despite condemnation, the speaker will represent and stand up for their community.
Dream killa get from round me x 8
Rejecting negative influences that hinder dreams or aspirations.
Straight up. I took some L's and I made mistakes
Admitting to past failures and errors, but not giving up.
But never stopped cooking up And always say my grace
Continuing efforts while being grateful and expressing gratitude.
I Remain my pace. Not a man can shame my race
Steadfast in maintaining personal dignity and pride in their heritage.
We left. Casting the stones in the ancient days
Leaving behind outdated practices or beliefs from the past.
I ain't afraid. My showing is of ancient ways
Confidence in showcasing traditional values.
Leonardo Don Vinci Ima paint this stage
Determined to leave a significant mark or legacy like a great artist.
Crank this bass. I'm crazy nice, I ain't insane
Being extremely talented without losing mental stability.
The dope flow to get you high. These bars ain't in vain
The lyrics have substance and meaning, not just empty words.
I remain. Solid. Ten fold
Firm and unwavering in their stance or position.
Far from the pedi/petty
Far from engaging in trivial or insignificant matters.
Though I'm polished. Ten toes
Despite being refined, the speaker remains firmly grounded.
Tryna see this life outside of my window
Seeking to understand life beyond their immediate surroundings.
Hearing out my heart beat. I found my tempo
Discovering personal rhythm or pace after introspection.
Peace is worth millions feeling rich became simple
Realizing that peace holds immense value, making life simpler.
I hope through my words. There is healing to mend souls
Aspiring to heal and bring solace through words and expression.
Here this info and what you in fo'
Sharing important information for one's understanding.
See I would never quit a purpose I am here fo'..get from round me
Commitment to a purpose and rejecting negativity or distractions.
Dream killa get from round me x 8

Repeat with higher octave and harmonies
Repeating the earlier message with more intensity and musical variations.
Adlib (Right Damn Now)
Additional vocal expression emphasizing the urgency of the message.
