0:04(wake up)
0:08(Get up)
0:12(Wake up) (wake up)
0:20(Get up)
0:24(Wake up)
0:27When I woke up this morning and got out the bed
0:31I had some really fresh thoughts going through my head
0:35They were the thoughts that came from a wonderful dream
0:39It was the vision of a world working as a team
0:43It was a dream
0:47Just a dream (wake up) (get up)
0:59There were no guns no what
1:01No tanks no what atomic bombs
1:03And to be frank homeboy there were no arms
1:07Just people working hand in hand
1:11There was a feeling of peace all across the land
1:15It was a dream
1:19Just a dream (wake up) (wake up)
1:32Between all countries there were good releations
1:36There finally was a meeting to united nations
1:40And everybody had an occupation
1:43'Cause we all worked together to fight starvation
1:47It was a dream
1:52Just a dream (get up)
2:00Everyone was treated on an equal basis
2:04No matter what colors religions or races
2:08We weren't afraight to show our faces
2:12It was cool to chill in foreign places
2:15It was a dream
2:20Just a dream (wake up) (get up)
2:32(wake up) (wake up) (get up) (wake up)
2:48All cities of the world were renovated
2:52And the people all chilled and celebrated
2:56They were all so happy and elated
3:00To live in the world that they created
3:04It was a dream
3:08Just a dream (wake up) (get up)
3:20There were no street people we live rent free
3:24And every single person had a place to be
3:28A job a home and the perfect pay
3:32And the world was free of greed and hate
3:36It was a dream
3:40Just a dream (wake up) (wake up)
3:52Unemployment was at a record low
3:56And the presidents were chillin at our show
4:01Listening to the things that we had to say
4:04And trying to create a new and brighter day
4:08It was a dream
4:12Just a dream
4:16It was a dream
4:20Just a dream
4:24It was a dream
4:28Just a dream
4:32It was a dream
4:36Just a dream
4:40(get up) (wake up) (wake up)
4:52(get up) (wake up) (wake up)
5:05(get up) (wake up) (wake up)
5:17(get up) (wake up) (wake up)
(wake up) (Get up) (Wake up) (wake up) (Get up) (Wake up) When I woke up this morning and got out the bed I had some really fresh thoughts going through my head They were the thoughts that came from a wonderful dream It was the vision of a world working as a team It was a dream Just a dream (wake up) (get up) There were no guns no what No tanks no what atomic bombs And to be frank homeboy there were no arms Just people working hand in hand There was a feeling of peace all across the land It was a dream Just a dream (wake up) (wake up) Between all countries there were good releations There finally was a meeting to united nations And everybody had an occupation 'Cause we all worked together to fight starvation It was a dream Just a dream (get up) Everyone was treated on an equal basis No matter what colors religions or races We weren't afraight to show our faces It was cool to chill in foreign places It was a dream Just a dream (wake up) (get up) (wake up) (wake up) (get up) (wake up) All cities of the world were renovated And the people all chilled and celebrated They were all so happy and elated To live in the world that they created It was a dream Just a dream (wake up) (get up) There were no street people we live rent free And every single person had a place to be A job a home and the perfect pay And the world was free of greed and hate It was a dream Just a dream (wake up) (wake up) Unemployment was at a record low And the presidents were chillin at our show Listening to the things that we had to say And trying to create a new and brighter day It was a dream Just a dream It was a dream Just a dream It was a dream Just a dream It was a dream Just a dream (get up) (wake up) (wake up) (get up) (wake up) (wake up) (get up) (wake up) (wake up) (get up) (wake up) (wake up)
