Testo His Dream - Asher Roth
Testo della canzone His Dream (Asher Roth), tratta dall'album Asleep In The Bread Aisle
He leans back from his desk
Rubs the back of his neck
The stress takes effect
Grips the bridge of his nose
Wince while he's showing emotion he normally won't
At 56 he reevaluates
Possibly regretting some decisions that he's made
Black is turning grey
Patches of his age
Reflecting from the glass is a pass of every page
Passionately Dave reads
Reading on occasion
Dreaming of the day when he could do the same thing
He's always wanted to write
That's all he's wanted in life
With two daughters, a son and a remarkable wife
He's in a bind
He has to provide
A family is relying on him merely to survive
His father died at 56
So he's well aware how vital a father figure is
How big of a responsibility it is
To be a good husband and care for your kids
Never miss an event
Helping them with homework
Discipline to prevent things when they're older
His only son is only 21
And focus as a poet has only just begun
Papa isn't dumb
He understands what this means
His dream is my dream
My dream is his dream
I close my eyes and I can see
The sacrifices he made for me
Put it aside for his family
So I'ma keep it alive
And so he targeted to be the dream guardian
Guarding it from anything and anyone who's harming it
But in his heart he knows the hardest thing about it is
Giving up on his dream to be all about his kids
As he kisses the lips of the missus
For 24 years going on the 25th
He thinks to himself this alone is a wealth
That's greater than what's bought and is sold on the shelf
Sometimes a dream is all that we have
We have to continue to dream
Cause once it is lost amongst other thoughts
Then what really are we?
What are we?
I close my eyes and I can see
The sacrifices he made for me
Put it aside for his family
So I'ma keep it alive
So he sits back at his desk
Cracking his knuckles and back of his neck
Faxing a paper displaying his name
On another application explaining the main
Things they should know but the things that they don't
Are the things that distinguish him as an adult
And over the phone he could never expose
The role that he chose
The role in his home
And at home he's a leader, a father
He'll prove it by using his son and his daughters
In their life he'll be playing the part of
The one who inspires
The one we admire
His only son is only 21
And focus as a poet has only just begun
Papa isn't dumb
He understands what this means
His dream is my dream
My dream is his dream
I close my eyes and I can see
The sacrifices he made for me
Put it aside for his family
So I'ma keep it alive
