Shadowdreams
-Will Smith-Hula-K. Fingers-
Performed by Will Smith


Me analogy of a shadow dream...
Dreams alter your shadows and your shadows alter your dreams...
In the deepest of the darkness it seems as, though they're gone,
in a light they are visible. Yet intangible and allusive.
Your shadow's your true validation of the fact that you exist...
It's shadow dreams.
And here we go.

Shadowdreams, they seem so distant, but the light is strong and though
you can't resist it. 
Keep on pushin', hold out your hand.
The light is your friend goin' in Caroline (?).
There's always darkness before the light. 
Nothin's worth havin' if it not worth a fight.
No love without labor, no labor no love.
Draw on the strength ya stole from above.
What can go wrong will go wrong.
But if you fall of a horse, just get back on.
"I have a dream!" the man stated. A shadowdream that he chased
to his grave.
Just because a dream is lurkin' in the shadows, doesn't mean that you
should just forget it!
I mean you work and you push and you sweat and you toile and you
strive 'n' drive till you get it.
Shadowdreams.

Chorus:

Shadowdreams...
Dreams of a shadows.
(Shadowdreams.)
Shadowdreams...
Dreams of a shadow.

Ev'ry dark cloud is hidin' silver linin'.
But don't get demobilized keep on climbin'.
Do all you can and keep your shadow alive, because you're not far
behind if your shadow dies.
Make sure you stop, and you check tonight, that your shadow is behind
you when you walk through the light.
'Cause a man without a shadow ain't a man at all.
I mean, I take it just for granted that my homie's on the wall.
Kids see the shadows, and they wanna play, but some times they're
stolen, taken away.
Adults are the thieves, the kids get robbed;
-Throw away that shadow boy! Go and get a job!
Just because a dream is lurkin' in the shadows, doesn't mean that you
should just forget it.
I mean you work and you push and you sweat and you toile, and you
strive 'n' drive till you get it.
Shadowdreams.

Chorus





14 years old, I used to wanna ??.
I guess you could say I was what you call a shadowdreamer.
I told my father that I didn't think I'd ever get it.
I said "I might as well just forget it..."
My father said;
-Son, don't be talkin' so dumb. Hard work and education makes anything
come. And plus a shadowdream ain't as far as it seems, son. 
You used to be a shadowdream!
Life is a mystery, but let's check history to see how many people
shadowdreams came true.
And if the other shadowdreams were equal, then why can't the next
shadowdreamer be you?
That's the philosophy I live my life by, when things are gettin' hard
through the stress and strife.
Keep on pushin' with a full head of steam.
Like a train through a tunnel to the shadowdream....
