Dreaming Lyrics


I came a long way since back in the day
From a teenager trying to make it, rapping this way
Ever since I was a kid, I had something to say
Rocking Mic's was a dream, I didn't care about pay
I sacrificed late nights and going out with my friends
Just to stay home alone with my pad and my pen
Had my eyes on the prize and my mind on my goal
As I carved these rhymes out with my heart and my soul
I didn't have a CD, all I had was a tape
On the dole, through my flow was my only escape
From a world where they didn't want to see me prevail
Don't wanna see me take it all, they'd rather see me fail
(It's like)
I was down and out, struggling
Wondered, how I'm gonna make it through
I've got a dream, holding on, can't let go
'Cause I've got to make it come true
I've got a dream to make it big in New York

Gave up the drugs and alcohol, I didn't want to distort
My vision to be living life to the full
And I wouldn't have made it if it wasn't for you
You picked me up every time that I fell
When I was going through hell, you told me I would prevail
You said, I had exactly what it took to be great
That I was young and in the future what a man I would make
It's like you saw something in me I couldn't see
You said, I would succeed and be anything I wanted to be
I'm twenty three and I just want to be me, want to be free
Want to be everything I can be
But I don't have many choices, I can't afford to be wrong
So all I do is try to stay true to the words in my song
Just don't hesitate and wait too long
'Cause like a dream when you wake up it's gone
(It's gone)
I was down and out, struggling
Wondered, how I'm gonna make it through
I've got a dream, holding on, can't let go
'Cause I've got to make it come true
It was a sunny day and we were feeling high
Jamming this song underneath a baby blue sky
Thinking back in the time when we were so poor
Remember the kids used to laugh at the clothes we wore
We always knew one day things were gonna change
And from that day I was never gonna be the same
I went to sleep that night and dreamt I touched the sky
And ever since I've been trying to keep my dream alive
So when you see the Scribe dropping the killer rhyme
Defining how I'm living mine, in this day and time
I'm working nine to five, slaving over beats
It's hard work living the dream, I hardly ever sleep
I'm in the rhythm deep just trying to do my thing
It's funny when you're shining, people hate to see the gleam
No matter what they say, keep on doing what you do
And don't give up 'cos only you can make the dream come true
I was down and out, struggling
Wondered, how I'm gonna make it through
I've got a dream, holding on, can't let go
'Cause I've got to make it come true

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
There is more than one artist with this name:

1) A New Zealand hip hop rapper.
2) A hardcore band from India.

#1 Malo Luafutu (born on May 29, 1979 in Christchurch) better known by his stage name Scribe, is a New Zealand hip hop rapper and recording artist of Samoan descent. His debut album, The Crusader, was released in 2003 in New Zealand where it has since gone five times platinum, achieving two number one singles

Luafutu grew up in Phillipstown, Christchurch. His first musical influencesas were rap artists NWA and Bone Thugs-N-Harmony. He spent his youth developing his rapping skills with local rap group Beats n' Peaces and Polynesian theatre company Pacific Underground.

He became more widely known throughout New Zealand with his guest appearance on P-Money's Big Things album. However he was still fairly unknown until the release of the double sided single "Stand Up"/"Not Many" in August 2003.

#2. Niraj (ex-PDV, Chaos Theory), Srinivas (ex-Chaos Theory), Vishwesh (ex-Split) and Prashant (Exhumation) comprised the original 2005 line-up, making appearances in and around their hometown (Mumbai). Soon after the release of their debut EP entitled 'Have Hard. Will Core' (on Demonstealer Records) in August 2006, Akshay (Skincold) joined in on guitars and completed the arsenal for their attack.

That was the one common thread that ran through all five musicians that make up Scribe. Drawing inspirations from the legendary bands like 'Sick of it All', 'Hatebreed' and the new revolutionary artists like 'The Dillinger Escape Plan', 'Sikth' and 'Walls of Jericho', the band takes pride in being the torchbearer of 'Hardcore' in India.

Subsequently, the band released their first music video for the song 'One Wing Pencil' on YouTube, and is currently fulfilling censorship formalities before they can broadcast it on television. Incidentally, this video was created entirely on their own, with no sponsors or external funds. They now spend their time in the studio putting together their first full-length debut album.

Having toured across Delhi and Pune, Scribe is waiting to explode somewhere near you.
Just about any second now.

31st- august -08 the band launched their album "Confect", it was distributed for free at I-Rock 08 at mumbai. The album is available for download on their myspace and reverbnation page.

Scribe signed up to the record label Grey and Saurian in August / september of 2009 and teamed up with one of the best producers from the country Anupam Roy to work on the new album. The album aptly titled " Mark of Teja" is a concept album and a tribute to the cult Hindi bolywood movie "Andaaz Apna Apna". It was recorded and produced at around February of 2010 and the the band played at the famous Inferno metal festival at Norway on 31st march 2010 and launched the album there.

On 15th of May the band is playing at the Summer Storm festival in India, where the album will be officially out in India.
