I Saw My Dad in a Dream - Akira the Don, Theo Von

I was just thinking that Jocko’s kind of…

A lot of people can be real father figures for me

I have such a desperation for that energy and that connection in my life that I

will latch on to people or put them in a place where

Oh, I gotta tell you this

So, I saw my dad in a dream

When I was in Hawaii or in Maui

Sorry, when I was in Maui

And it was really crazy 'cause I hadn’t seen him in 20 years

Even in a vision

You know, and I had an adult vision and I saw him

You know, and I saw him and it was crazy, we were at a…, it was kind of

confusing

It was a dream, you know?

And Robert De Niro was there and Matthew McConaughey was there

And we wer in Maui

My dad was in one room eating at a table and Matthw McConaughey and Robert De

Niro were in another room

And my dad wanted to come and meet Matthew McConaughey, but he didn’t want to

meet Robert De Niro

And so I was trying to, like, mediate between the two of 'em

And finally my dad and Matthew McConaughey got to meet each other,

which doesn’t mean anything, but it was just interesting to see my father.

I hadn’t seen him

I saw my dad in a dream

I saw my dad in a dream

I hadn’t seen him in 20 years

Even in a vision

I saw my dad in a dream

I saw my dad in a dream

I hadn’t seen him in 20 years

Even in a vision

You know, I’d seen him in pictures and I’d seen him in just, you know,

imagination what, what his

What he looked like or something, but I hadn’t seen him really

And it made me think that my dad lives in Hawaii or something, you know?

Like I was like, oh, is this where he’s been?

And it made me think, well of course this is where he’s been

This is where I would be

It is stunning but yeah, I got to see my dad, man, I got to see him, it was

I just didn’t know

I just didn’t know

I didn’t know that he’s been in Hawaii or been, you know, that he’s been there

And he was healthy

He was healthier looking than I’d ever seen him in my whole life,

that’s what’s wild

He was kind of thicker, he been eating

His hair was darker

And um, he was laughing, man, he was laughing

He was kind of being cool

Kinda a little bit play it cool or be cool I guess, I don’t know

I mean, he, you know

I mean, he lives in that world in the subconscious or in dream world, so,

you know

I have no idea what his life is like there

He may drive a Corvette, I don’t know, I didn’t see

You know, the parking lot or anything like that

I just saw just him

I saw my dad in a dream

I saw my dad in a dream

I hadn’t seen him in 20 years

Even in a vision

I saw my dad in a dream

I saw my dad in a dream

I hadn’t seen him in 20 years

Even in a vision

I saw my dad in a dream

I saw my dad in a dream

I hadn’t seen him in 20 years

Even in a vision

I saw my dad in a dream

I saw my dad in a dream

I hadn’t seen him in 20 years

Even in a vision

And man, right when I got up

I’ve just been on this kick where I’ve just been trying to stay more motivated

and like

When it’s time to get up it’s time to get up

And I need to do things, and I want to have more experiences in my life

You know, recently I’ve just been realizing, like, I do a lot of stuff but it’s

a lot of the same things

And I’m not really having a lot of new experiences

And so I want to have a little bit more of that

Man, I wish I’da just laid back down and try to go right back and see him

You know, wherever he was, but it’s just so funny, man

I’ve slept in, you know, in the past 20 years I’ve probably fallen asleep in 42

states

In 15 or 20 or 30 uh, I don’t know, countries

And not once did I see my father and then bam

I’m in Maui and there he is
