SkyBlew – Dreaming Of Yesterday lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yesterday I was unsure
If tomorrow was an option, my obscure past
Had me feeling like I'm walking 'round in a mask
Depressed even living was a hard task
A product of my environment
Succumbing to stereotypes, flirting with early retirement
Ambition was a mission that was missing
Broken Dreams, shattered promises, reminiscing
Of simpler times, writing rhymes under sunshine
Only battles we had, was through punchlines
Now the world's at war, everyday we at odds
A wise homeless man told me we're gods
Uhhh, I don't know with these permanent flaws
When the curtains close are we worth the applause?
Nobody's perfect, I get that
But the future's at risk, we gotta fix that
[Chorus]
Wish God replied when I pray
Why the skies gotta be so grey?
Tomorrow's promises are vague
So I been Dreaming of yesterday
Yesterday
Yesterday
Yesterday
I've been Dreaming of yesterday
[Verse 2]
Yesterday I thought about
Everybody that I hurt, so I sought 'em out
In my Dreams
I just had to apologize
I'm not good with goodbyes
I never meant to break your heart all those times
Please understand I had plans in mind
I hope you find paradise you've searched for
Was it everything you worked for?
Please forgive my sins
Everyday's feeling like the beginning of end
Lost friends, I'm attempting to make an amends
Real world is a challenge, mtv is pretend
Sometimes, I wish that I could go back
Before social media, before I wrote raps
When life was a little easier
Before I became aware that the world's not fair
[Chorus]
Wish God replied when I pray
Why the skies gotta be so grey?
Tomorrow's promises are vague
So I been Dreaming of yesterday
Yesterday
Yesterday
Yesterday
I've been Dreaming of yesterday
[Bridge]
I'm Dreaming of yesterday
Said I'm Dreaming of, yesterday
I'm Dreaming of yesterday
[Chorus]
Wish God replied when I pray
Why the skies gotta be so grey?
Tomorrow's promises are vague
So I been Dreaming of yesterday
Yesterday
Yesterday
Yesterday
I've been Dreaming of yesterday
[Verse 3]
But today is the present, I'ma treat it as such
By sharing my gift, no rifting adjust
Another one biting the dust when I'm ripping it up
Hitting the clutch, I'm taking my shot before the clock stops
Old school, like collecting box tops
Or hopscotch, you rapping like your mouth's full of Pop Rocks
This abstract flow, you caught in a flash back
No Cash App, direct depositing these Jazz raps
Go stash that up in your memory bank
That's a millions dollars baby, no Hilary Swank
No deal for me thanks, my soul ain't for sale
American Dream's a fantasy, my dog still chasing a tale
No fables on my trail, I will prevail
On a mass scale
Spiritual braille, this a feeling beyond the veil
Bringing sight to the mentally blind with every line
We're meant to be kings, shine from the depths of your mind
919 to the 334, I'm bringing it home
Back in my zone, healing through tones of songs
All humans belong, gone
Skies are my home
Paint The Sky, Blew!!!
Gone
Yesterday I was unsure
If tomorrow was an option, my obscure past
Had me feeling like I'm walking 'round in a mask
Depressed even living was a hard task
A product of my environment
Succumbing to stereotypes, flirting with early retirement

Broken Dreams, shattered promises, reminiscing
Of simpler times, writing rhymes under sunshine
Only battles we had, was through punchlines
Now the world's at war, everyday we at odds
A wise homeless man told me we're gods
Uhhh, I don't know with these permanent flaws
When the curtains close are we worth the applause?
Nobody's perfect, I get that
But the future's at risk, we gotta fix that
[Chorus]
Wish God replied when I pray
Why the skies gotta be so grey?
Tomorrow's promises are vague
So I been Dreaming of yesterday
