When you say I wasn't there for you
 Have any clue what I was going through?
 When all my time it felt like it's for nothing, nothing
 See where were you?
 But I've been slowly getting better day by day
 Tuning out those words you'd always used to say
 When you told me all this time it was for nothing, nothing
 Now look at you.

 'Cause I've been doing this since like 1996
 Little kid big dreams, little kid big dreams
 When I saw it on TV knew what I wanted to be
 Little kid big dreams, little kid big dreams
 Used to practice every day ain't no seeing no other way
 Little kid big dreams, little kid big dreams
 Now my children watch me play 'cause I've got those bills to pay
 Little kids big dreams, yea, little kids big dreams

 Seems like I'm forever dreaming
 Seems like I'm forever chasing this

 "Oh, when will you grow up and
 Start to make this something?
 Start to bring home something?
 You're always in the clouds
 Oh, when will your eyes open?
 You're always busy hoping
 Feels like it's been too long and
 Time to start coming down."

 'Cause I've been doing this since like 1996
 Little kid big dreams, little kid big dreams
 When I saw it on TV knew what I wanted to be
 Little kid big dreams, little kid big dreams
 Used to practice every day ain't no seeing no other way
 Little kid big dreams, little kid big dreams
 Now my children watch me play 'cause I've got those bills to pay
 Little kids big dreams, yea, little kids big dreams

 Seems like I'm forever dreaming
 Seems like I'm forever chasing this
 Seems like I'm forever dreaming
 Seems like I'm forever chasing this

 'Cause I've been doing this since like 1996
 Little kid big dreams, little kid big dreams
 When I saw it on TV knew what I wanted to be
 Little kid big dreams, little kid big dreams
 Used to practice every day ain't no seeing no other way
 Little kid big dreams, little kid big dreams
 Now my children watch me play 'cause I've got those bills to pay
 Little kids big dreams, yea, little kids big dreams

 Seems like I'm forever dreaming
 Seems like I'm forever chasing this
