"A Dream" is a single by American rapper Common from the soundtrack to Freedom Writers.
[1] The single release of "A Dream" includes two will.i.am tracks, "Colors" and "Bus Ride."
The video for the single contains images from the movie (many of which feature Hilary Swank, its lead actress), mixed with animated series with will.i.am singing on a platform and Common rapping in corridor and bedrooms before stylized images of the Civil Rights Movement.
Television footage of the "I Have a Dream" speech is exposed on guide throughout the video.
The imagery is destined to increase the song's messages of determination in the face of discrimination, and ambition for a racially equal world.
