When I was born a butterfly flew into the room

That's how I know I was born to do what dreamers do

I'm a lover I'm a chooser and I choose to fight

They won't monetise my dreams inside my head tonight

Somewhere between dreams and reality

It's a revolutionary act when Black girls dream

I been moving restless when I try to sleep

Whispers of what the ancestors try to say to me

I tend to dream and carve a story out of stone

Wish I could tell my younger self I'm not alone

And when I sleep I sow the seeds and watch them grow

Teal dreams teal dreams

I might take myself on a ride

No more man-made limitations

Just my higher conscience and I

In flow unknown destinations

I wanna paint my soul in brushstrokes

And make a gallery of teal dreams real dreams

Teal dreams

Confidence growing back it's a renaissance

Used to dance in my parents' house

Then the world tried to tear me down out

Here in this room of greens and blues I'm living loud

Lay back and cruise let my imagination wild

Run back the years unlock the fears and mess around

Done with the empire let me rewire now

I might take myself on a ride

No more man-made limitations

Just my higher conscience and I

In flow unknown destinations

I wanna paint my soul in brushstrokes

And make a gallery of teal dreams real dreams

Teal dreams oh I

Teal dreams are real dreams of mine

Teal dreams are real dreams of mine

Teal dreams are real dreams of mine

Teal dreams are real dreams of mine

Teal dreams are real dreams of

Teal dreams are real dreams of

Teal dreams are real dreams of mine

Teal dreams are real dreams of
