Seven Year Dreams

Seven Year Dreams
By Kyle Oakeson

I’m just lookin’ for a fight, want to raise hell through the night
All for the dream I had back then Seven years of pain and strife
Last night’s vision couldn’t shake, had you in my arms ‘was great!
Then you changed your plans and said tomorrow you’d just be my head

I work so hard to reach my dreams, day and day that’s all it seems
Made me poor but I don’t care, just as long as I have you there
Then it comes to me a fright, that one vision of that night
Where you told me you’d be gone-- hey what is going on?

Life does things it doesn’t care, makes you choose what you want here
Takes away what you don’t work for, tells ya “you can’t have no more”
Seven years I worked for this, didn’t add you to my list
My mistake I blew it all, somehow this is my downfall

I’m gonna have the dreams I want, and all regrets will start to haunt
Make me hurt when I get old, while surrounded by my gold
I don’t value fame and wealth, success in dreams isn’t my health
I could lose it any day, and still feel I’m on happy way

I value people more than dreams, seven years chasin’ these things
But all my life I’ve sought for love, from my girl and up above
From my family and my friends, I don’t wanna see the ends.
I don’t wanna see the end
Even if it costs my dreams.
