[Verse 1]
I’m gon' make my way through this world someday
I don’t care what nobody say
American dream, political scheme
I’m gon' find out for myself someday
But I’m half-lit, I can’t dance for shit
But I see what I want, I go after it
And my girl’s alright, treats me nice
Sayin’ nothin’, but a woman puts out that light
[Chorus]
I got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it
I got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it right
'Til I get it right
[Verse 2]
Oh well, my baby no doubt dreams further out
Makin’ moves to get us someway someday
Well, my honey don’t trip, shoots from the hip
Tell me everything gon' be OK
[Chorus]
I got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it
I got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it right
'Til I get it right
[Bridge]
Well, my mama's so sad, daddy’s just mad
‘Cause I ain't gon' have the chance he had
My success is anybody’s guess
But like a fool, I’m bettin’ on happiness
[Chorus]
I got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it
I got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it right
Got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it
I got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it right
'Til I get it right
I’m gon' make my way through this world someday
I don’t care what nobody say
American dream, political scheme
I’m gon' find out for myself someday
But I’m half-lit, I can’t dance for shit
But I see what I want, I go after it
And my girl’s alright, treats me nice
Sayin’ nothin’, but a woman puts out that light
[Chorus]
I got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it
I got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it right
'Til I get it right
[Verse 2]
Oh well, my baby no doubt dreams further out
Makin’ moves to get us someway someday
Well, my honey don’t trip, shoots from the hip
Tell me everything gon' be OK
[Chorus]
I got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it
I got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it right
'Til I get it right
[Bridge]
Well, my mama's so sad, daddy’s just mad
‘Cause I ain't gon' have the chance he had
My success is anybody’s guess
But like a fool, I’m bettin’ on happiness
[Chorus]
I got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it
I got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it right
Got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it
I got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it right
'Til I get it right
