Verse 1
(A minor) I have a dream of a scene
between the green hills
Clouds pull away and the sunlight's
revealed
People don't talk about
keeping it real
It's understood that they actually will
And intoxicated and stimulated MCs
Staring in the trees, paranoid,
are gone in the breeze
Watch them flee, hip-hop heads
heads
Take a walk with me and what you'll see
Is a land where the sand's made
of crushed up wax
And the sky beyond you is Krylon blue
And everybody speaks in
a dialect of rhyme
And MCs have left materialism
behind them
Meanwhile, I just grip my mic
And hope me and my team
make it through alright
Because say what you will,
and say what you might
But don't ignore who it's for
at the end of the night
(E major) Because (A minor) this is dedicated to the

kids
Dedicated to wherever (B minor) music lives (B major)
Dedicated (A minor) to those (F major) tired of
the same old same
And dedicated to the (E major) people
advancin' the game
What's (A minor) real, is the kids who know
that something's wrong
What's real,
is the (B minor) kids who think (B major) they don't belong
What's (A minor) real,
is the (F major) kids who have nowhere to run
Who are hiding in the (E major) shadows,
waiting for the sun

Verse 3
(A minor)
I've talked to a bum
Out on Sunset Strip,
he asked me, "How would you feel
If everybody acted like
you didn't exist?
You'd lose your grip,
probably eventually flip"
So let it be known,
the only reason that we do this
So you can pick it up and just
bang your head to it
While MCs fight to see who
can be the commonest
We float overhead like a space
odyssey monolith
Over (D major) seeing the game,
over being part (B minor) of the same (E major) old thing
(B major) It's all gonna (A minor) change in a hurricane
(F major) of darkness and pain
And acidic rain and prom (E major) ises
you won't do it again
(A minor) Meanwhile, (D major) I just (D minor) grip my mic
(D major) And hope (B minor) me and my (E major) team
make it (B major) through alright
(A minor) Because say what (F major) you will,
and say what you might
But don't (A minor) ig nore who it's for
at the end of the night
Verse 4
Because this is dedicated to the (A minor)
kids
Dedicated to wherever (B minor) music lives (B major)
Dedicated (A minor) to those (F major) tired of the
same old same
And dedicated to the (E major) people
advancin' the game
What's (A minor) real, is the kids who know
that something's wrong
What's real, is the (B minor) kids who think
(B major) they don't be (B minor) long
What's (A minor) real,
is the (F major) kids who have nowhere to run
Who are hiding in the (E major) shadows
waiting for the sun (D major)
(B minor) Pulling me close, the shadow
Verse 5
(B minor)
is warm inside (F major)
This is where (E major) I feel at home,
this is my place to hide (D minor) (D major)
(B minor) Pulling me close,
the shadow is warm inside (A minor) (F major)
This is where I feel at home, (E major)
this is my place to hide
(A minor) Because this is dedicated to
Verse 6
(A minor)
the kids
Dedicated to wherever (E major) music lives
Dedicated (A minor) to those (F major) tired of

What's real, is the kids who know
that something's wrong
What's real,

What's real,

Who (A minor) are hiding in the shadows

Who hides in the (E major) shadows waiting
