Dm
Dream - while you're sleepin'
Dm
  Time is slowly creepin'

  Open up your eyes - before it's too late (nah)
Dm
Try a little harder
Dm
  Stop wastin' over yonder

  No time for dreamin' (Dreamin', dreamin')
      G                               Dm
Gotta get on up (Get up!) Gotta do my thing (- gotta do yo' thing)

[Verse 2]
Dm
  While you're sleepin'
Dm
  Somebody's schemin'
Dm                       Dm
