[verse 1: trezure empire]
it is obscene
how truly i do
intimidate you
you could shackle and buy
but you could not take my time
in the sun that made me so much taller

[hook: akil loving]
daydream. i fell asleep beneath
the flowers. i had a day-
-dream. i had a day-
-dream. dreaming

[verse 2: orunmila]
there’s a path by the pond where we take baths in. my mind
wandering, i’m wondering where the path end
if i had a head start, i swear i’m where the gr-ss thin, sit
my nickname “fart,” my -ss so fast i’ll p-ss wind
and all i do all day is daydream of running
where? i don’t care as long as it’s far from here. i here ‘em
say jesus coming to save me from struggling. maybe
jesus is a boat that could take me to london
or somewhere out west. i’ll be the best, and wrote last when
we’re pro-abolition, won’t have to listen to no master then
i’m imagining i could dabble in bull-wrastling
i’m running, foot fast as wolfpacks in the woods traveling
i’m good, past these weird–ss habits, just look african
having great adventures with everything good happening
eyes onto the skies. oh my, you look dazzling
forgotten it, and i was cotton-picking or wool-gathering

[hook: akil loving] (x2)
daydream. i fell asleep beneath
the flowers. i had a day-
-dream. i had a day-
-dream. dreaming

[verse 3: !llumin@te]
uh, i have american dreams, i have
plans that can never be seen, so when i be in the field
i got to keep them concealed, so i just keep to myself
i’m just keeping it real. in my mind, i fanta-
-size of reclining, living on an island
keeping one eye open for pirates, barter and trade
probably live in a harbor or bay and make
beautiful black babies—i’m trying to be a father someday
and sometimes, i sunbathe in the summertime
just to ease the pain, just to numb the mind. my mind
wandering, medicine woman, sublime conjuring
communing with ancestors, we honor them, speaking
languages i don’t understand. i don’t know what it means
and i don’t know what i’m saying. i just know that i’m praying
as i fall to my knees and face the sun
bowing my head, i raise it up, waking up from a…

[verse 4: sciryl]
i have american dreams and
nightmares i might never be free, daydreams
of being a regular man with regular things, a
regular wife, and regular needs. i’m here now
but if ever i leave, i cherish the first breath
i inhale when i breathe. i kiss the ground and watch a rose grow
i’ll blow smoke to the ozone and start
plans from my own home. yup, i bask in my
accomplishments, my mind wandering wildly
wishes of climbing the mountains are down in the valley
walk to new york or riding to cali on horseback
while i’m reading the inkblots on a rorschach, uh
like, “what does this remind you of?” how you gonna use
this time before your time is up? that feeling when you feel
the sun don’t shine enough, but when it does, i’m in the field
hot as f-ck, picking cotton up, finding, ‘god, i had a…’”

[hook: akil loving]
daydream. i fell asleep beneath
the flowers. i had a day-
-dream. i had a day-
-dream. dreaming
