Shadow Dreams

(Shadow dreams dreams of a shadow)

The analogy of a shadow dream
Dreams are to shadows as your
Shadows are to your dreams
In the deepest of the darkness it
Seams as though they're gone
In the light they are visible
Yet intangible and illusive
Your shadow is the true validation of
The fact that you exist hence shadow dreams
And here we go

Shadow dreams they seem so distant
But the light is strong and
No you can't resist it
Keep on pushing, hold out your hand
The light is your friend go on in Carol Anne
Its always darkest before the light
Nothing's worth having if it's
Not worth a fight
No love without labor, no labor no love
Draw on the strength bestowed from above
What can go wrong will go wrong
But if you fall off a horse just get back on
"I have a dream" the man stated
A shadow dream that he chased to his grave
Just because a dream is
Lurking in the shadows
Doesn't mean that you should just forget it
I mean, you work and you push and you sweat
And you toil and you strive and drive
Till you get it: shadow dreams

Every dark cloud is hiding a silver lining
But don't get demoralized, keep on climbing
Do all you can to keep your shadow alive
Because you're not far behind
If your shadow dies
Make sure you stop and you check tonight
That your shadow is behind you when
You walk through the light
Cause a man without a shadow
Ain't a man at all i mean
I take it just for granted that
My homies on the wall
Kids see the shadows and they wanna play
But sometimes they're stolen, taken away
Adults are the thieves, the kids get robbed
Throw away that shadow boy go and get a job
Just because the dream is
Lurking in the shadows
Doesn't mean that you should just forget it
I mean, you work and you push and you sweat
And you toil and you strive and drive
Till you get it: shadow dreams

Fourteen years old I used to want a Bimmer
I guess you could say I was
What you'd call a shadow dreamer
I told my father that I didn't
Think I'd ever get it
I said: "I might as well just forget it"
My father said: "Son
Don't be talking so dumb
Hard work and education makes anything come
And plus a shadow dream ain't as
Far as it seems son
You used to be a shadow dream"
Life is a mystery but let's check history
And see how many peoples
Shadow dreams came true
And if the other peoples
Shadow dreams were equal
Then why can't the next
Shadow dreamer be you?
That's the philosophy I live my life by
When things get hard through the
Stress and strife I
Keep on pushing with a full head of steam
Like a train through the tunnel
To my shadow dreams

Uh ha shadow Dreams
Dreams of a shadow
