[Verse 4]
G
And I don't want to talk about the trap, I've dreamed big
D
Real big since I've been on daddy's lap
A
Got my dreams by my side
Keep them in my pocket so that when I get the chance I can rip it out and rock it
G
It's like my golden ticket, it's the reason that I'm here
D
Everybody has a dream, but they're frozen by fear
A
We won't dance in the rain, we go and run for cover
All that is to blame is getting picked on by another
G
So we go and find someone that will love and support us
D
Says they adore us, maybe fought for us
A
Then, we forget about ambitions and decisions have changed
I think that I was only seven when oh
