Professional Dreamers - Looptroop Rockers

Living the dream

Living

Living the dream, don’t wanna wake up

I never dreamed about getting paid

I dreamed that the people never forget the name (Looptroop)

I dreamed about getting fame

The hiphop way I read ‘Getting Up'

And it modeled my work ethics

I got up every morning starting putting words together

Words from my dreams about living in a better world together

Sounds like work forever

But that’s cool, my work is a dream

And my work is to dream so you can call me a dreamer

Call me dream weaver, naive, believer

I’m still an achiever — professional dreamer

Living the dream, don’t wanna wake up, cause we’re

Living the dream, don’t wanna wake up, living

I got memories for sale autobiography

Everything that’s real now started as somebody’s dream

A vision of the future, notes on a wrinkled piece of paper

Like my feet getting too big for these shoes, see you later

And regardless if I win or loose I gave it a shot

In one way I won anyway whether you like it or not

And the story’s not over my daughter need me to stay

Like child I make the rest up along the way

To all beautiful losers have faith and pride

Don’t let nobody kill that creative drive

And to my friends I love you til' next time you see me

Keep conquering the world.

— Word to Douglas: keep dreaming

Living the dream, don’t wanna wake up, cause we’re

Living the dream, don’t wanna wake up, living

Since 92 we’ve been on this trip with no end station

Seems hopeless but this is the destination

Still got planes to board, tracks to record

But when we agreed I couldn’t ask for more

Suddenly my dream became a nightmare

The music woke me up now I’m back in this right here

And I’m a team player, I need these guys

Thanks for holding the seat, let’s reach the skies

From big cities to outbacks we’re backpackers

No plans too big for these dream catchers

So as long as we breathe we’ll still strive

Cause it’s the dream that’s keeping us alive

Living the dream, don’t wanna wake up, cause we’re

Living the dream, don’t wanna wake up, living
