Hey...Remember When...
We was in preschool right?
We had sooo many dreams that was wanted to be real."I heard that unicorns are real, is that true? Because I'm going to get one so I can fly in the sky with my magical unicorn."
"I wish I could meet Santa Claus."
"I want to be a tooth fairy."
"I'm gonna meet the Easter bunny when its Easter again."
"I wish I could be a millionaire so I can have a big, nice home with everything I want."
"I want" and "I wish" was all in our fantasy minds...Moving along to Elementary School, we was a little precise on dreams... we showed how we want to be in the future.
"I want to be a football player."
"I'm going to be a basketball player."
"I wish I could be the smartest person in the world."
"I'm going to be a model."
"I wish i could be the tallest person in the world."
Tahaha, after that, we move on to... other things we love and good at.
Aye, middle school, halfway there huh?
We was in love with things like sports, singing, dancing, drawing, etc.
"I want to be a football player because I got hands and want to be in the NFL."
"I wanna be a basketball player since I love basketball and want to be in the NBA."
"I'm going to an artist since I love drawing and being creative."
"I want to be a Nascar racer so I can drive as fast as I can."
"I wish I could be a scientist so I can make some improvements."
"I'm going to be singer/rapper because I got bars and I love singing."
Yeah... We expressed our ideas and dreams, like whoa...
After 8th grade, you move on to high school...
And it's not a good sight...
Cuz see, look... Sum still have dreams and do what they want to do but some, just want to give up on life and get depressed... High school is like being in prison with full of fake and rude ass kids...Sad isn't it?
Some just want to say forget it and just give up... Just knowing that they can't achieve that dream...
Some probably facing personal life problems they cant stand... Which might... Lead to suicide... Or stuff like that, eh... You get the point...right?
We want things to go in our way but we have to face some obstacles first...
All of this... What I just said... Is called "Nightmares"
Nightmares in our minds during our highschool years is like...
"I cant be an athlete since my grades are bad."
"I'm gonna do drugs, man. I cant take this shit anymore! This is too much for me... I'm going to get high so i dont have to think about anything."
"Bro, I'm gonna dropout... Nobody wants to be in this hell hound...That's my only option."
"Cant do this"
"I definitely fucked up."
*crying* "you know what? I'm done. I cant deal with this bullshit anymore!! I'm going to commit suicide so I can be in a better place."
"Giving up is my only option, i guess"
So... Depressing, isn't it?
Man, nightmares can really conquer yo dreams.
When we was young, we had that positive, fantasy side with dreams filling up our minds.
When we was in our pre-teens, we had a vision while we get introduced to "nightmares" when we get to highschool.
Now in our teen years, we se our nightmares and future dreams... Some dreams fades away like it was never there...
