Lyrics

Verse 1:
How do you call yourself the land of the free,
When you glare cause I dress differently?
How do you call yourself the land of the free,
When you make me hide my faith cause you disagree?
Everybody needs to pay their dues 
And do whatever it takes 
But even honest work and speaking my truth 
Could land me straight in jail 
So, it’s clear to see if you’re destined to be me 
It’s a privilege to dream 

Verse 2:
How do you call yourself the land of the kind,
When we’re forced to leave when dad retires?
How do you call yourself the land of the kind, 
When you ignore everything you’ve gained from his sacrifice?
Make him say goodbye to all his friends
When he needs their love the most 
I wish my mom and sister had
A place to call our home 
But it’s clear to see if you’re destined to be me,
It’s a privilege to dream

Bridge:
Is my dad to blame for being brave,
When he moved across the world for his family?
Is my mom to blame for her strength and grace, 
When she paid no heed to a dated society? 
Am I to blame for tryna create 
A legacy my sister can claim?
Am I wrong to believe we’re allowed to be more than history?  

Verse 3:
How do you call yourself the land of the fair,
When you never favor me when I’m in despair? 
Every move I make is a cross I bear 
Cause it’s evident that you’ll never care 
In the end I only matter if 
I fit your prototype 
When the world is wrecked and disaster strikes 
You won’t you validate my kind 
So, it’s clear to see if you’re destined to be me 
It’s a privilege to be 
So, it’s clear to see if you’re destined to be me 
It’s a privilege to dream

Privilege To Dream (B-Side)

Me and my brother were once plannin on performing a song for a church program. I came up with the intro for this song by Petra called Lovely Lord back then. We realised that it sounded pretty nice and thought it could be turned into a complete acoustic track which is how this track eventualy materialised. Its my first acoustic recording recorded on an electric guitar (no acoustic guitars lying around unfortunately). Its a bit rough around the edges! Hope you guys like it! 

The Power of Your Love
