Dream












Dream 'oh Dream 
 When man fastens to (his) dream's heel, 
Like tar stucked to a truck's wheel, 
When he embraces it like a lost treasure just seen, 
When he refuses to let go his belief in his dream, 
His will, defiance, zeal, all deep, 
The future to a domain of fulfilment welcomes him. 

 As a student anticipates the voice of a bell, 
A dream awaits you in a closed shell, 
Protected from being beheld, 
By men who will whirl mesh round its neck, 
Lock it in the subconscious cage, 
In dormancy enchain, 
Bury in the negligence grave, 
Wobble it like a feather on a sea wave, 
Men who never will maximize it, 
The dream is meant not for them, 
And IT will they never meet, 
It awaits Just you not 'em men. 

A dream gives direction, 
It strengthens your focus, 
It sets your intution into motion, 
It births every unique notion, 
With or without education, 
Every man with a dream blossoms, 
Like a flower that daily enjoys the morning Sun. 

Like the sky accentuates the earth's beauty, 
Your dream transmutes you into a distinct entity. 
Dream, dream 'oh dream, 
To man you give genuine reason to live, 

Dream 'oh dream, 
A man who lacks you needs to go back to sleep, 
Dream 'oh dream, 
You are what the weak need, 
Yes you and a zeal that won't leave, 

Dream 'oh dream, 
A leader leans on your brawny limb, 

Dream'oh dream, 
The youth seeks your pill, 
Our ailing future needs to be healed. 
Show me a man who has no dream, 
And I will show you a future with holes drilled.
