Lyrics

Intro

(Yeah)

Mm-hmm

(Yeah)

Verse 1

Mailbox empty but my pockets holding plans

I sketched a whole skyline on a napkin

Nobody clapped when I said what I would be

Now they ask me how it happened

Rent due Friday and I paid it with a horn

Blew a note so low the landlord heard my name

Auntie said boy you ain't nothing but a dream

I said watch me turn a dream into a lane

Pre-Chorus

So I keep one foot moving

Keep one hand on the map

If you can dream it you can do it

That's the whole entire thing

Chorus

If you can dream it then you can do it

Say it till the doubters go quiet

If you can dream it then you can do it

Build it brick by brick in the silence

(Do it)

(Do it)

Verse 2

Corner store prophet told me talk is cheap

I bought a notebook and I spent it on bars

Saxophone screaming through my cheap apartment wall

Neighbors knocking but they staying for the bars

Every no I ever got became a rung

Every rung became a floor became a roof

Now the block that laughed at me hums my tune

Small kid big plans never needed proof

Pre-Chorus

So I keep one foot moving

Keep one hand on the map

If you can dream it you can do it

That's the whole entire thing

Chorus

If you can dream it then you can do it

Say it till the doubters go quiet

If you can dream it then you can do it

Build it brick by brick in the silence

(Do it)

(Do it)

Bridge

Some folks dream in whispers

Some folks dream out loud

Me I dreamed in baritone

And blew it through the crowd

Chorus

If you can dream it then you can do it

Say it till the doubters go quiet

If you can dream it then you can do it

Build it brick by brick in the silence

(Do it)

(Do it)
