Nick Jones – Dreamcatcher (feat. D-Wattz)
Verse One: Nick Jones
Everybody got a dream that they trying to chase
But it seems to never catch it when it’s right in their face
You just settle for less, afraid to take the chance
To be something great, instead of living a sham
I understand chasing a dream can be a risk
But living is a risk so you gotta deal with it
You do what you’ve gotta do and I can respect that
But missing your chance? Man, I just don’t get that
You only live once so you might as well try
To do something special with yourself before you die
Instead of laying on your deathbed wondering why
You never took the chance to fly into the sky
Tomorrow isn’t promised, gotta live for today
Enjoy life and let nothing get in your way
Pursue every goal that you set to accomplish
Never know unless you try and that I can promise
So get up off your ass ’cause the clock is ticking
Start making some moves and stop being a chicken
I’ll tell you how, all you gotta do is just listen
Follow your heart and it will take you the distance
It’s in all of us, can’t you feel the fire?
It’s burning hot, you can have all you desire
Don’t throw your life away and waste it on a scheme
Do yourself a favor, start chasing your dreams
Chorus: D-Wattz
Dreamcatcher
Your the only one that can control your life
The only one that can design your path and get it right
From a thug, boy, it’s all in your mind
But if you want it bad enough, it takes heart to fight
Dreamcatcher
Take a breath and find that soldier deep within yourself
Don’t wait for help, it’s up to you, baby, no one else
Every journey starts with one step
You gotta struggle for that moment like it’s life or death
Dreamcatcher
Just have faith and never worry about what people say
They compensate, people hate ’cause they still afraid
Risk it, let the chips fall where they may
You can take it all away, life begins today
Dreamcatcher
Wanna taste it, gotta face it, better get it together
Gotta do what it takes, it don’t matter the weather
Never give it up or you let life getcha
I betcha

Verse Two: Nick Jones
The minute you born life deals you a hand
No matter the cards you gotta play like a man
What I don’t understand is how could you ever fold
And never take the chance, your legacy never told
Don’t want to live my life barely being the status quo
That’s why I take a risk that may seem irrational
‘Cause I never know unless I give it a shot
So I hop into this shit and give it all that I got
If it flop, ain’t no thing, we live another day
The moral to the story of everything I say
Failure is nothing anyone should be afraid of
In a lot of cases it shows just what we’re made of
So give it up ’cause we out of excuses
You gotta set a goal and go and execute it
You know you can do it so you might as well prove it
Or do it for yourself, either way just do it
This is it, nobody living is getting younger
You don’t eat now, you’ll never satisfy the hunger
You wonder why you are the prey instead of hunter
Instead of giving the chase, we steady running from it
I’m telling you, there’s nothing the people cannot accomplish
We gotta work together, just listen, I’m being honest
United we stand but divided we fall
Can we do it if we never try it at all?
Stand tall and do whatever you want to do
‘Cause you’re the only one you should be listening to
In the end, the person that’s going to have to do it is you
And that’s what holds us back and you know it’s the truth
To the youth, the future of the great human race
The time is now, you got dreams, you better chase
You only young once, you better do what it takes
But on that same token y’all, it’s never too late
Make haste, ’cause actually time is of the essence
Put down your nine, use your mind as a weapon
Then every battle from then on is a victory
You don’t believe me, then go check the history
Or look at me because I’m living inspiration
If I can do this shit then I know you can make it
So understand in your world you are the master
Fuck chasing your dreams, get out there and catch ’em
Chorus: D-Wattz
