All I Do
Dream dream dream
My life full of dreams
All I do is to dream
And each day I walk in the reality of my dreams

What Do You Do With Your 'Day And Night'?
I live the day to dream the night
As I dream the night to live the day
I work the day to rest the night
As I rest the night to work the day
I pain the day to gain the night
As I gain the night to pain the day
I give the day to earn the night
As I earn the night to give the day
Life is all about time
As time is all about day and night...

Took a step, one after the other
When I fell, I rose to walk, limp or do both
Muttered what I have to say hoping to communicate

I heard lies and deception, sincerity and truth
I saw light and darkness, day and night
I learnt the right from wrong but found it difficult to do the right
Because the system was stuffed with evil
