When I was younger

You told me I should get my shit together

You said life is a painting

But all your colors always bleed together

Woo all the times you said I wasn’t just quite right

Woo and all I was trying to do was search for a light

When you said look for your sunshine it’s not there

I told myself that I don’t care

I found some new innovations

Might just be my imagination

But people can dream

When I was younger

You told me I should get my shit together

Because life is a painting

But you ain’t trying to show me you ain’t clever

Woo for all the times you said

I wasn’t just quite right

But you said look for your sunshine it’s not there

I told myself that I don’t care

I found some new innovations

Might just be my imagination

People can dream

(People can dream, people can dream

People can dream)

Yeah

In my dark days and night

It might’ve been just a dream

In these dark days and night

I’ll be more than what you see

In my dark there’s a light

It might’ve been just a dream

In these dark days and night

(Dark days and night)

Oh when I was younger

You told me I should get my shit together

(People can dream)

When I was younger

So why your colors always bleed together

People can dream (woo)

People can dream

People can dream (woo)
