Witt Lowry - Dreaming With Our Eyes Open (Official Music Video) 

I can't emphasize enough how much I love you and the music you make, we will always have your back man

you know what makes a good song? when you can you can hear their voice stress the words and it sounds like they are going to break down in tears right then and there and when they give that little voice crack when you're trying to hold back tears❤that's the equation to the best song❤this song has all that

Here I am in 2020, reminiscing in the memories that this song evokes. They're sad memories, yet hopeful. How poetic and ironic.

Six or seven years later, and his music is able to be kept so perfectly preserved. His track, rhythm and voice are just so uncomfortably raw and unique that there’s nothing else like it. Every time I listen, it sounds like a new song.

Damn…in 2024 still gives me goosebumps like the first time I heard it ❤️ Witt is everything ❤️

Witt Lowry and NF NEED to happen!

I forgot he existed. I used to listen to him all the time. He helped me through so many rough times. Finally found this song again and you know what. I'm happy I did.

--LYRICS-- . . Stuck in the same room, in the same mood Everybody tried to tell me what I can't do Everybody tried to tell me that I changed too And I changed lanes from you lame dudes It's been a minute since I spilled my pain Had to take a step back and look at life in a different way If you want the change, you gotta be the change Now we're all the same Nobody wanna take the reins Nobody wanna push their brain Nobody will admit that they're fake for the facts they claim You see we're all imperfect in a perfect way And while we work all day, we all work, no play We are slaved to the loans and the bills we pay You consume a double cheese when the radio play Mainstream, Mickey D's and my shit gourmet I've been up for seven days straight Tryin' to figure out my fate Tryin' to figure out any way to put food on my plate But I sold a few tee's, so I'm eating today Okay, doing okay Could probably do better, came home to a letter Eviction, I know I don't fit your description of rapper But me I'm a clearer, they threw all the chatter I know everything that glitter ain't gold Life is the clay, you too busy to mold Time here is taking its toll We spend all our time without passion and then we get old Was told I should go quit But none of you see all the letters I get from these kids Who hurt from within and don't wanna live And tell me my music is all that can give them hope Yeah, all we need is some hope And they tell me their family's broken and broke They usin' my music to cope I've been on that boat, held down by a rope Held down by a string, y'all looking for things I'm looking to change the perception of people And all of the beautiful things that it brings, yeah Record in my closet, don't make enough profit Y'all used to have morals and somehow you lost it Don't care about the money I spend on my coffin I care bout the people attendin' And often we're lost, lost in this world We're selfish to think, "I could find happiness in a girl" We're selfish to think we're elite, we destroy and deplete Our whole planet no smarter than squirrels So who wants to talk about that? Who wants to talk about facts Maybe I'd be in your mag If I added "Ti Chi" or "bap bap" Or I talked about weed when I rap But fuck all of that, the voice of the youth The voice of the people, the real and the truth The voice of the one who had nothin' to lose I speak for a heart that's been broken and beaten and bruised I'm tired of holes in my shoes Tired of having to move Tired of coming unglued Tired of cleanin' your table and servin' you food We are what we choose If only you knew the shit that I've seen I can't tell if I'm lucid or livin' the dream I don't do it for me, do it all for the team I remember back livin' when I was a teen And my grandma, she said I was worthless And my teachers said I had no purpose And my mama she said I was perfect I'm sittin' on Twitter while I should be workin' on verses You're worth it, and when you feel weak The deeper the trench, the higher the peak See y'all are a piece of my legacy 'cause you believe We can be anything and I wanna be… me

You and Abstract are pure Inspiration

The first time I ever heard this song, I started crying. I want "we're all imperfect in a perfect way" tattooed on me somewhere.

"The deeper the trench, the higher the peak"

Continue to come here at least once a week for this song.

This is the first time I've ever heard of this dude and holy shit he's great wtf

No "money", "bitches" or "hoes". This is real music.

Usually don't like rap music, but this one

This song gives me chills every time

Witt Lowry is 100% what I was searching for. Love his music

I have just started to listen to NF and him, the tracks hit deep.

He is the first rapper i know that doesn't care about money he cares about the fans ⛪⛪

Yet again Witt, you've hit us with what Music really is. Beautiful video, and your message rings loud to all who listen. Been a fan for over 3 years now, and I'm not going anywhere anytime soon. Keep being real, and keep showing a generation your vision. We'll be here until the end. #TEAMWITT

I have been nonstop refreshing his page for 10 mins now. Totally worth it. #TeamWitt

You can actually feel his emotion through the song. wow this is the first time i actually shed a tear to a song. Keep doing what you do Mark :)

It's been like 4 years, when I was really down that I listened for the first time to this track. Thanks a lot Witt, for your music, the constant inspiration you are and the words you put on stuff we can't get for ourselves. Still listening to this from time to time, 'cause I find this track one of the most inspiring, beautiful and true of everything that exists out there !

My brother passed away 2018 bike accident I was 15 at that time I didn't know what to do how to deal with it ,then I met your songs and you saved me while I was giving up on myself thank you lots off love ♥️

When nostalgia makes you back here, Witt will be the best for me, Inspirational and Powerful Message inside his songs❤️

Witt Lowry is such an inspirational Artist. I was daiting an unfaithful Person and i wasnt expecting that it will hurt so much. Now 3 days in a row listen to Witt Lowry it makes me feel better. It's about Hope , "We are all the same". I dont wish this Person any bad things because we are all imperfect. Witt is like the big Brother, that tells you everytime you are disappointed or even depressive, that everything will be fine. Thank you Witt! #TeamWitt

"We spend all our time with our passion and then we get old" woah this is deep... this got me thinking...

4 years ago I found this song randomly and became a witt lowry fan for life, sucks that I cant see him live this october in SF

My dad was really abusive and my mom had cancer and my mom sent my brother and I to our gramas and my mom just took of and this song really truly helped me find myself and helped get me out of my depression I wish we had more people that sang with such passion like u

Before Witt gets big, just wanna say I was here at the start.

So much heart in this. This is truly great

Thanks for your service witt you are truly a blessing to all of us if you read this please keep working on your music you deserve everything good to come to you.

there isnt a single year that passed by without listening to this song atleast once ever since it released.

This song motivates me to do so many things.

Does anyone else see your own life in his music?

i had my first kiss to this song... its perfect in every way

Bro this is not a song this is a art

Most of songs are just empty words... His songs are just clear emotions #TEAMWITTY #FOREVER

Great video Witt!

I was tired of being told what to do, then I listened to this. Thanks Witt.

This brings up memories from the times that my life was hard af but i got through the times with the help of Witts music, especially this song so thanks for this amazing song!!

I shidded in my pants, uuuhhh, this is for reeeeal

I love this song. this is real rap right here. rap where they rap about sex, money, drugs, mostly of lyric words are cuss words and stuff where ya can't really tell what they saying and stuff like that is bullshit. I don't see why this song. got over 100 dislikes...

This gives me chills every time I hear it❤️

Wow. Stunning. I have no other words. I get chills when I listen to this man's music. He truly practices what he preaches and you can see it in his emotions and demeanor how much his words mean to him.

Fuck first song I've heard from him was Like I do and I've been a fan ever since ...

Man..... This connects to me so much😢especially rn

This song gives me hope

This is the type of music that needs to be on the radio. This is pure, and legit. Been through a lot of shit in my life, dreams and goals kept me fighting, music like this kept me writting.

Yo Witt I hope life gets brighter for you man. You're an inspiration to many already and I hope you'll be an even bigger one to many more. Keep fighting, you give us hope.

Imagine a track with Witt and Logic, that's be magical.

Witt Lowry, you moved me to tears with this song to always remember "The dream is free but the hustle is separate!" Thank you for this song man!

Thank you for the positivity. There's not a lot of it in this world and this world needs it.

The emotion he puts in his songs is so incredible .

Remember me when this video have 10 Million views..

All his songs have the same story... Amazing he can write so many songs with the same story in so many different ways. Probs out for Witt!

I saw a few comments like this and that being said I hope all you my brothers and sisters are doing amazing! But this is the 1st time I've listened to this since I overplayed it in what I thought at the time was my lowest point but life is tough. It often gets tougher before better. But this song gave me so much hope in a time where I felt hope wouldnt just come to me. And now yes life is still tough but I've grown. I understand life more, and I dont fall down like I used to, I stumble. And I learn. Thank you Witt so much. Love you guys!

Deep.. just deep

Why can't this be on the radio like this rap deserves to be on the radio

Everytime i listen to this i cry.. i can relate to most of the lyrics and can actually understand what he is saying... the emotions behind the words and to actually understand makes me feel things i havent in a long time hope you get to where you wanna be💝

Almost four years since I heard this for the first time, I'm 16 but ever since that first time I listened I knew what I was gonna do when I hit 18. Get "Don't care 'bout the money they spend on my coffin, I care about the people attending" tattooed somewhere. Such a powerful quite, and something everyone should live by. I can't wait.

"If you want the change, you gotta be the change" Realest lyrics

Just found this guy ! I lobe him so much !

Best Witt Lowry song hands down...

As a hardcore country music fan and a infantry grunt, im proud to admit this. Witt is an amazing artist and his music got me through a hard part of my life . Your music will always have a special part in my heart witt. Youre living proof that no matter what backround we grew up in, everyone has something in common. Thank you

witt.. i'm crying. i'm so proud.

my brother died on 9/5/16 he's 14 now his birthday was 10/11/16 and you probably won't care but if you could just reply you'd make me so happy he loved you he and him listened to your music everyday you made us so happy enough to where it got me and my brother closer and love each other but I can't do that anymore I'm just telling you Witt Lowry that you were his favorite artist and I hope that means something to you

These songs hit home. Keep the passion running through your veins! I've been blasting this through my speakers speaking my emotions through music as I pick my life back up. Your music helped me get sober and cut out the bad from my life and see the beauty from the rubble as I walked away still holding my head up high. As I recently have came to find out im going to be a mom my fight to stay healthy mentally and physically after all the dark days that held in my memory and the end of my 4year relationship. I have released them and look forward to a brighter more positive way at expressing my emotions. Its one step at a time with a glance up to the skies. Thank you.

Crazy that after 7 years im stilling blasting this!

You can hear, even feel his passion. You're amazing Mark we cant wait to hear what you're creating for us. Our goal is to make sure just about everyone knows your name! You deserve it man keep it up. #TEAMWITT

OMFG What a beautiful song, love it

I seriously listen to his songs on replay all the time. Usually if I listen to a song to much I’ll get tired of it and not like it but his music is different. Recently I’ve been going to some really bad stuff and I feel with his music helps me escape that. I can relate to this song so much with every word he sings. Keep doing you Witt.

"You believe we can be anything we wanna be and I wanna be me"

This is beautimus

this is one of the most powerful songs ive ever heard and it inspires me to keep writing music. thank you Witt
