Verse
A place that never sleeps
And me i stay up
Living in the city
Where dreams are made of
Pursuing the paper
They can take us out the endz
It never will change us
Feelin like its always dark inside
Praying that we see the light
Hope the sun does shine
This the same place brudda
You can loose your mine
Hope the feds dont stop me
As i cruise on by
Tryna survive
In this environment
Yeah in southside
Watch for backstabbers
Yeah you need a third eye
Cause were living in the times
Were bruddas in manors
Are banging hammers
They don't pet to take a life
But
If you can see the other side
of the fence
Where some aspire to something thats deeper than the endz
Cant see the vision
Then get a clear view
I ain't talking no where far
Thats a place right near you
Chorus
A place near U
Im talking about a place Near U
And they say
Where do dreams come true?
Uh
Im talking about a place Near U
A place Near U
I'm talking about a place Near U
And they say
Where do dreams come true?
Uh
Im talking about a place Near U
Verse 2
In between the city
And bright lights
We graft till late nights
Hustle and bustle
Till we arrive
At new heights
A place near you
No we came from gutter
Born without a silver spoon
So weve all known to suffer
Tryna keep from going under
Cause everybodies starving
And i wonder
Is it different
Or the same in every borough
Blessed
But lost souls
Tryna find our way
And coming from broken homes
Still Tryna reach our goals
And opportunities remain scarce
if you make it out here
you can make it anywhere
I swear
through all madness and drama
And few role models around here
Cah We not used to seeing fathers
But you can make it round
Without a doubt
Just channel tunnel your vision
Trust you can make it out
Cant see it yet
Then get a better view
I aint talking no where far
Its a place right near you
(Repeat chorus)
Bridge
Envision a place a near you
And this aint even far to get to
Feels like the rain
Neva stops
One day the sun will shine through
