    This is so subtle, Kanye talks about how some people waste they're life on bad decisions, instead of following your dreams and finding real happiness. He uses the example of a career woman, she's independent but that didn't bring her happiness, he talks about how she would trade her current life for a husband and some kids. What did her career really mean if it didn't bring her happiness? Where is life's meaning if we continue to choose things that make us unhappy? "You ever wonder if you'll find yo dreams?" We can all take steps to improve our life's, and at the end of the day, what's the point of living if we're perpetually unhappy?

    I lost my brother a few years ago. He introduced me to Kanye. I remember watching him purchase this album at a store. We would sit down and talk about how Kanye is an amazing artist with the mind of a unique individual. To this day this album will always be my favorite album of all time! This was was my big brothers favorite. Still have that CD in a safe.

    This was my best friend's favorite song from Kanye. He would just play that song on repeat and I wouldn't have any problem with it because it was also one of my favorites. He passed away last December due to cancer, and he was closer to me than my actual siblings.
    EDIT: Thank you to everyone's responses. I'm doing the best I can currently. My wife and my kids have been keeping my spirits up nowadays.

    I am a 23 year old man from South Sudan, I have spent most of my life in a continuous war, it was a normal day 2 weeks ago as I was fighting. Then, the Sudanese fighters played this absolute masterpiece, we then began to all put down our guns and dance to this lyrical masterpiece. Thank you, sir. For Peace this song changed my life. My entire view of everything that exists in this world, in fact, even in the entire universe. I can never look at anything I know the same way again. This song represents emotions that most humans could never understand. But I can. Thanks to this song I was awakened to many things previously considered unimaginable. Thank you for this exquisite song. This video is an exquisite masterpiece, out of every single video I have ever even heard of on the entire platform, this by far has enlightened me to do fly, lose 90 pounds and even become the president of the United States, and I'm going to tell you why this is such a masterpiece as if hearing the creators, no, god of this universes luscious voice. I would like to express my thanks to you. My gratitude for your indisputably magnificent assistance is almost infinite. Your efforts have not gone unnoticed. I really like your contribution that you have in our society, you really make a difference and help others out, the world could always use more people like you. Gosh, what a polite and humble fellow. It is such a kind honor for someone as low as me to be in contact with someone of a level such as yours. I thank you once again my good friend. A world without you, would be a world I would not be able to live in, and I believe I share that opinion with most people. I can rest easy tonight knowing you helped. I appreciate you and everything you stand for and on behalf of everyone on planet earth, thanks. Yes I 100% agree no lie I am 10/10 with you in this statement no question. You are completely absolutely correct and have made no mistake in your sentence whatsoever and I applaud you for that as you have made a thoughtful statement that many agree with and those that disagree are in the minority because your statement has absolutely no faults and thus is completely without a question correct and deserves nothing but agreement. and by the way, super saiyan blue theme is a very powerful, moving song that showcased the capabilities of human emotion. It used groundbreaking technology to create stunning sounds that would mesmerize the listeners. This song is suitable for all ages; whether you're 5 years old, or 50, you should listen to this song. It is inspiring and it showcases the spectrum of human nature and how humans communicate with each other. This song revolutionized the music industry and set the bar high for other songs. In the future historians will look back on this song and regard it as the pinnacle of human achievement. It was a roller-coaster from start to finish, the nail-biting song will leave you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. Listeners will find themselves absorbed by the heartwarming tale of a relentless, determined African tribes who didn't let societies standards shape his/her/it's life. I was shocked by how intense and gripping this song was. The plot is rich, unpredictable and touching. This isn't your typical African war song, this song is a war with one's emotions. Tales of Africa is a stirring masterpiece that only comes once in a millennium. This thrilling instruments makes it a jaw-dropping performance that properly utilizes the medium. I rate this song 10 African tribes/10 African tribes, and will never listen to it again as every time I get saddened by the the fact that there will never be a song to match this masterpiece.

    Lyrics:
    Find your dreams come true
    And I wonder if you know
    What it means, what it means
    And I wonder if you know
    What it means, what it means
    And I wonder if you know
    What it means to find your dreams
    I've been waiting on this my whole life
    These dreams be waking me up at night
    You say I think I'm never wrong
    You know what, maybe you're right, aight
    And I wonder if you know
    What it means, what it means
    And I wonder if you know
    What it means to find your dreams
    You say he get on your fucking nerves
    You hope that he get what he deserves, word
    Do you even remember what the issue is
    You just trying to find where the tissue is
    You can still be who you wish you is
    It ain't happen yet
    And that's what the intuition is
    When you hop back in the car
    Drive back to the crib
    Run back to their arms
    The smokescreens
    The chokes and the screams
    You ever wonder what it all really mean
    And I wonder if you know
    What it means, what it means
    And I wonder if you know
    What it means to find your dreams
    And I'm back on my grind
    A psychic read my lifeline
    Told me in my lifetime
    My name would help light up the Chicago skyline
    And that's what I'm
    Seven O'clock, that's primetime
    Heaven'll watch, God calling from the hotlines
    Why he keep giving me hot lines
    I'm a star, how could I not shine
    How many ladies in the house
    How many ladies in the house without a spouse
    Something in your blouse got me feeling so aroused
    What you about
    On that independent shit
    Trade it all for a husband and some kids
    You ever wonder what it all really mean
    You ever wonder if you'll find your dreams

Takes me back to when my girlfriend and I went on our first date and it plays in my head like a movie. We went to go grab some pizza, then some ice cream, afterwards we went to a rose garden where I told her how she made me feel then to top it off we went to a drive in where we watched a really corny movie and we just sat there and made fun of it. Ugh if I could just relive this day it would be so amazing 🥲

    This whole song inspires me, but the line “these dreams be waking me up at night” in particular resonates with me. I always interpreted this line as Kanye’s larger than life aspirations and goals (his dreams) kept him up at night, because he felt he couldn’t rest until he achieved them. That’s exactly how I feel at times. Far too often I’m kept up at night because I’m so driven to accomplish all of my goals, but I feel like they’re so far out of reach. That’s why I love Kanye’s music so much though , he encourages you to never give up on your dreams and to believe in yourself.
