Rise releases yet another beautiful jam “Dream,” after his February track “The Way You Make Me Feel” a total vibe check! The song clocks in at a perfect 4 minutes and 50 seconds of pure rock bliss. Real talk from the song’s lyrics, they hit different. The verses paint a relatable picture of that ‘adulting’ struggle bus— “When all around is falling down (falling down), and I just held my head.” It’s vulnerable AF, like that moment when you accidentally post a cringey throwback pic on Insta.
The absence of a “guiding map,” “crystal ball,” or “safety net” isn’t portrayed as despair, but rather as a thrilling challenge, an invitation to embrace the unknown.
The chorus, “Dreams…we do our best we plan/Hopes…we do the best we can”—it’s that relatable loop of dreaming big and making it happen. The iconic repetition, also the bridge with those “Oooohhh’s” Pure chills. This song gives another indication, it shows the human spirit’s never-give-up attitude.
Produced by Rob Whiteley at Liverpool’s Whitewood Studios, “Dreams” boasts a signature RISE sound— instantly recognizable yet audaciously boundary-pushing. The production is pristine, powerful, and provides the ideal canvas for lyrics that resonate with raw, unfiltered honesty. This is a song that lingers long after the final note fades, a powerful reminder that the journey, with all its twists and turns, is what truly matters.
