Dreams Worth Dying For Lyrics

I'd like to thank all the men and women in the armed forces
I wouldn't be able to follow my dreams if it weren't for them
I get nervous for a show
Then I put it all to the side
When I realize
You wake up in the middle of the night
Just to fight for my freedom
I pledge my allegiance
Ball players and rappers get paid more
I can't believe it
Honestly we all blessed
Even when I feel depressed
I realize it ain't nothing compared to post traumatic stress
The government said they'd look out for you
Then they turned their back
You've seen your own friends die
There ain't nothing worse than that
You come home and your wife might have left you for a new man
Your kid don't remember you
And ain't shit you can do man
Sorry on behalf of the people that just ignore you
We're dying over money, religion and finding oil
I understand it's necessary
I just wish it wasn't
Ignorant men and women
They just go and blame the Muslims
Stop pointing fingers and blaming a race of people
When every single walk of life is carrying some evil
I know a lot of people gonna get my words twisted
I'm a good guy
Spreading good vibes
On a mission
I want the world to be more accepting of others
Instead of seeing color
Realize we're sisters and brothers
I wish growing up I showed more respect to my mother
I want to smile and be happy but the world's full of trouble
This Hi-Rez

Everybody going through some shit
Trying hard not to lose my head
Always give my all
My back is against the wall
So many thoughts that just go unsaid

(I got too) I got too many highs and lows
I got dreams worth dying for
Struggle every day
I'm fighting though
Living through and die
I'm writing though
(I got too) I got too many highs and lows
I got dreams worth dying for
Struggle every day
I'm fighting though
Living through and die
I'm writing though

The world don't treat mental illnesses
As serious as physical
Cause they don't know everyday what it's like to feel invisible
We focus on the wrong things
And honestly it's pitiful
And people getting shot with they hands up
Like they criminals
We're living like we're fucking slaves
Teachers getting underpaid
So much weighing on my brain
That's why I carry so much pain
I was popping champagne
My friend was in the hospital
Should've been there when he got jumped
I feel responsible
Everybody caught up and living in the moment
It's cool every once in a while
But stay focused
Should I keep a gun loaded
Or keep my heart open
I'm trying to find a balance in my life
I swear it's hopeless
I always take out my problems on the people that's closest
They never get the flowers
When they can still smell the roses
Children starving and they homeless
Most people just accept it
I can't be the only one that feels so disconnected
Every day another stupid person gets commended
Some loved ones close to me, cancer went undetected
Stop judging motherfuckers
When you don't know what they go through
You don't know how close that they came to tying a rope noose
Walk a day in my shoes
I ain't got shit to lose
Come meet the forbidden fruit
See the terrible truths
People die from suicides, addiction and overdose
Acting like I can't relate but that shit hit close to home

Everybody going through some shit
Trying hard not to lose my head
Always give my all
My back is against the wall
So many thoughts that just go unsaid

(I got too) I got too many highs and lows
I got dreams worth dying for
Struggle every day
I'm fighting though
Living through and die
I'm writing though

(I got too) I got too many highs and lows
I got dreams worth dying for
Struggle every day
I'm fighting though
Living through and die
I'm writing though

(I got too) I got too many highs and lows
I got dreams worth dying for
Struggle every day
I'm fighting though
Living through and die
I'm writing though

(I got too) I got too many highs and lows
I got dreams worth dying for
Struggle every day
I'm fighting though
Living through and die
I'm writing though
