mfuqua23 Posted January 31, 2005 Report Share Posted January 31, 2005 It's finally here. My version of 'Dreams' u could say. I wrote this on MLK Day too. Click here to hear "Brought Upon A Dream" January 17, 2005 CHORUS I have a dream that one day, real artists will reign Talk about the ups and downs, both the pleasure and pain Status, it won't matter going platnium or gold Won't matter how ya come in if ya new or ya old ...I brought upon a dream (3x) I brought upon a dream that sets standards right for every soul of the earth that loves holdin a mic As rappers, we got goals and voices that's very loud Listening supportive crowds and stances that stay proud for those who need leaders, smartin' up as followers to a place where a scheme for dollars was never needed But believe it, that this reality holds Creative spirits locked away, that's how talent is sold I've had dreams for the moment, quick to plan it Struggled wit varied options and I couldn't manage Done day to day damage, try to prioritize my path, which has never had an easy way to ride Never been up in the VIBE, cuz I didn't subscribe so I could write back bout topics that caught my eye But I've caught the rappers visions, of how they're livin' where sometimes it's real, sometimes it's business Get stuck in between, money by any means Fight against nightmares, so I can live out my (dream) Nary a platnium chain, let my image be clear Stayin' down to earth and truly sincere CHORUS Nobody's believin' that I can achieve Can't depend on my friends like those friends depend on me I kinda don't let them see it, therefore I'll never be it In the back of their mind, my failure is kept secret Regret what I say, and take a new approach today that helps me balance out being strict and being stray Is it the air waves of stations, or sound waves of voices that expand my name in the land as one of the choices that hip hop fans can listen to, I get thru cuz I know how to come, don't beat em down like a drum It's like a one chance audition, there's no more wishin' Pressurin' ya-self as ya own competition Ratha better myself, then destroy someone else cuz it's on me to know, just how I felt after I learned, before the world turned to a new day My ideas refreshed and represented in a new way It was the posters, magazines, and songs wit themes that propelled me everyday to go for a (dream) To write about a (dream) To think about a (dream) Couldn't take it anymore so I (brought U all my dreams) about being artistic, not measured by statistics Like oxygen's colorless, talent is ageless Hip hop was brought up race: African But it can be performed and listened to by any person CHORUS then the end will have a locker door slam and my next track will be "The Locker (Skit)". ---------------------- How's the audio? I listened to it. As far as volume is concerned, I think it's fair. Effects sound ok? I wanted a lil different kind of sound. Almost like in a deep vision type state.

mfuqua23 Posted January 31, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2005 (edited) With regards to my music I'd much rather people tell me the truth about it rather than just say yeah its alright! i don't feel I learn anything from it and won't be able to progress as an artist! Yes, that's all fine and well, but that still doesn't help me!! I can't progress without a report. :sonny: jjfp2004 - thanks iceonly - ur opinion not important? We all put an ear out to listen to our fellow JJFP members. btw, nice sig.
