"A Dream" is a single by American rapper Common from the soundtrack to Freedom Writers. It is produced by fellow rapper will.i.am, who also sings the song's chorus. The song heavily samples Martin Luther King Jr.'s historical "I Have a Dream" speech, which relates to the song's lyrics about racism.[1] The single release of "A Dream" includes two will.i.am tracks, "Colors" and "Bus Ride."
