american dream lyrics
[intro]
look
[verse 1: burden]
everybody stayin’ at home, gettin’ government checks
y’all got no independence and no self~respect
you got played, it’s too late, now it’s cause and effect
you ain’t willin’ to change and that i’m willin’ to bet
your american dream and my american dream are different
sittin’ on [?] harder then we gotta say vision
matchin’ me with the greatest, ’cause every time i came with it
came in, until i take over, thеn i ain’t finished
i am everything thеse corporations hate
i’m an entrepreneur, they can see i’m doin’ great
i could make a billion dollars and it wouldn’t get a thing
when they hold no power and they ain’t got no say
it’s time to be independent, you talk it, i live it
if you really was a boss, then you’d start you a business
now is not the time for you to give in to submission
they got all the power, it’s our time to get it
i think they made it clear, we in a war for our life
if you backed in a corner then it force you to fight
they stole the whole country like a thief in the night (yeah)
what in the h~ll is america without rights?
it ain’t what it is, it’ll never be
only gettin’ worse every d~mn day steadily
heard about the peace and the love in the 70s
never seen it with my own eyes, there was no [?]
[chorus: burden]
the american dream
slowly been dyin’ and becomin’ merely a dream
the man to be seen
we march through these streets, we know that you hearin’ our screams
american dreams
we pay all these taxes, started relaxin’, now we all fallin’ asleep
all of ya sheep
better wake up or say goodbye to the american dream
slowly been dyin’ and becomin’ merely a dream
the man to be seen
we march through these streets, we know that you hearin’ our screams
american dreams
we pay all these taxes, and started relaxin’, now we all fallin’ asleep
are all of us sheep?
we need to wake up or say goodbye to the american dream
[verse 2: mesus]
i have this dream i keep havin’
but it fades in and out like an addict relapsin’
sometimes i wonder if it’s just my imagin~
~ation, ’cause the nation, it’s bond is collapsin’
it’s under attack but it’s comin’ from within
i’m wonderin’ if and when, we’ll ever wake up and shake up this government
’cause if we don’t, then i’m sorry to say it
“land of the free”, we can no longer claim it
this ain’t entertainment, this my declaration
for my god, my family, and my generation
i ran out of patience, i’m tired of pacin’
back and forth, ready for war if it takes it
this more than a statement, i’m willin’ to lay my life down in it
plot down my headstone, engravement
should read that he bleeds every lyric he’s sayin’
and [?leadin’ properly from?] words that he’s prayin’, yeah
[bridge: mesus]
i pray for this country, ’cause this ain’t the country i’s raised in
i was raised in a country where men have backbones and they raised men
you could call me old~school but i really don’t know where those days went
so, father, please save us, i pray this in jesus’ name, amen
amen
don’t know what else i can say, man
dream my whole life to spit flows on the mic
dope enough i could make house payments
and now that i’m here, let me make myself clear
that anyone who wants to take this
you can take six that’ll put you to sleep
and that’s what we call a rude awakenin’
[chorus: burden]
the american dream
slowly been dyin’ and becomin’ merely a dream
the man to be seen
we march through these streets, we know that you hearin’ our screams
american dreams
we pay all these taxes, and started relaxin’, now we all fallin’ asleep
all of ya sheep
better wake up or say goodbye to the american dream
slowly been dyin’ and becomin’ merely a dream
the man to be seen
we march through these streets, we know that you hearin’ our screams
american dreams
we pay all these taxes, and started relaxin’, now we all fallin’ asleep
are all of us sheep?
we need to wake up or say goodbye to the american dream
