Beautiful Dreamer

I pledge allegiance to the flag

Of the United States of America

And to the republic

For which it stands

One nation under God

Indivisible

With liberty and justice for all

Uh, now everybody take a knee

Alright, that's enough, get up, 'cause I can barely breathe

It seems keeping up with race may not really be your speed

But there's just as much Tebow as Kaepernick in me, yeah

See, I got white brothers that I love a lot

Who know nothing 'bout underhanded cops

My dad would tell the story, now we used to hearing pop

Here's the twist in the plot

You would make it, I might not

Sure, sirens can make anybody nervous

And no disrespect to the ones who protect and serve us

I just don't wanna watch another funeral service

'Cause no lives matter in the media circus

Is it Black vs. White or is it Dark vs. Light?

Pick a side in this fight 'cause it's Wrong vs. Right

Man, you'll always close the doors if you think people are strange

But as long as we're alive just know that people can change

Even you

Come talk to me, why don't you come talk to me?

Don't start walking away

We had a dream and the dream got taken away (we had a dream)

Come talk to me, why don't you wanna talk to me?

You just keep walking away (we had a dream)

We had a dream that was born in the USA (talk to me)

Slippery slope, I'm tryna level the floor, yeah

I'm giving you hope, you're tryna settle the score

We won't trade the lies we believe for the truth we ignore

Makes me wonder what I'm doing this for

And when the trap gets set, remain calm

The cops or the robbers, who do they call?

Robin Hoods like Peter just to repay Paul

And the church so apalled that we became Saul (stop)

So when I see a brother in need or a brother on knee

It really makes no difference to me

'Cause we're either united or we're all untied

Whatever you believe will show when you speak

And everybody's good till they gotta be good

As long as they're doing what you think they should, uh

Who's my neighbor? The story's been told

So don't cross to the other side of the road beautiful dreamer

Come talk to me, why don't you come talk to me?

Don't start walking away

You had a dream but the dream is fading away (we had a dream)

Come talk to me, why don't you wanna talk to me?

You just keep walking away (we had a dream)

We had a dream that was born in the USA

Say it with me

I love you (I love you)

I love me (I love me)

Now say

I love you (I love you)

I love me (I love me)

I love you (I love you)

I love me (I love me)

Okay now

God loves you (God loves you)

God loves me (God loves me)

All together say

God loves you (God loves you)

God loves me (God loves me)

God loves you (God loves you)

God loves me (God loves me)

(We had a dream)

Come talk to me, it's time for you talk to me

No more walking away (we had a dream)

I have a dream and you can't take it away (we had a dream)

Come walk with me, just around the block with me

A mile is all it takes (we had a dream)

Still have a dream that I can make it in the USA
