Yosiah Broken Dreams lyrics

Had a dream last night, that my father was in my life
He raised me to be a man, and he taught me wrong from right
But all I had was my mama tellin' me it'll be alright
But I wonder, did he love me? Did I not deserve his sight?
The cuts was deep from this broken dream, so I was scared of the night
No male figure, so I couldn't tell the dark from the light
I fell into depression, a dream to a nightmare
Somebody save me (I'm in the middle of nowhere)
Feet movin' (But I can't go nowhere)
I'm strong, but things ain't what it seem
Only a few of y'all will understand what I mean
Bare wit' me as I share my broken dreams, hold up
If you wanna know what I been through
Just count my broken dreams
It all ain't what it seems
And some of y'all know what I mean
I remember what I been through
When I count my broken dreams
And It all ain't, what it seems
Let me share my broken dreams
Had a dream last night, that my family was closer
Pride didn't divide us, we let love decide us
But I was tossin' in my dream
Because we let satan beside us
Everyone wants to lead, but we need somebody to guide us
Got a sickness that can't be cured by you doctors
(Too deep, well let me go deeper)

Abortions across the nation, ‘cuz we all think it's cheaper
Never really cried, but on this song I'm a weeper
Had a dream my aunt didn't overdose on crack
Had a dream my friend neva got shot in his back
Had a dream the World Trade wasn't under attack
Had a dream the biggest crime wasn't black on black
Had a dream that the church neva got off track
I'm strong, but things ain't what it seem
Only a few of y'all will understand what I mean
Bare wit' me as I share my broken dreams, Hold up
(Chorus)
If you wanna know what I been through
Just count my broken dreams
And It all ain't what it seems
And some of y'all know what I mean
I remember what I been through (What I been through)
When I count my broken dreams
And It all ain't, it all ain't what it seems
Let me share my broken
My broken dreams
Let me share my broken dreams
My broken dreams
(Yeah)
