American Dream Lyrics

Alright

When success is equated with excess

The ambition for excess wrecks us

As top of the mind becomes the bottom line

When success is equated with excess

If your time ain't been nothing but money

I start to feel really bad for you, honey

Maybe honey, put your money where your mouth's been running

If your time ain't been nothing but money

I want out of this machine

It doesn't feel like freedom

This ain't my American dream

I wanna live and die for bigger things

I'm tired of fighting for just me

This ain't my American dream

When success is equated with excess

When you're fighting for the Beamer, the Lexus

As the heart and the soul breath in the company goals

When success is equated with excess

I want out of this machine

It doesn't feel like freedom

This ain't my American dream

I wanna live and die for bigger things

I'm tired of fighting for just me

This ain't my American dream

'Cause baby's always talkin' 'bout a ring

And talk has always been the cheapest thing

Is it true would you do what I want you to

If I show up with the right amount of bling?

Like a puppet on a monetary string

Maybe we've been caught singin'

Red, white, blue, and green

But that ain't my America,

That ain't my American dream

This ain't my American dream

(That ain't my American dream)

I wanna live and die for bigger things

(I wanna live and die for bigger things)

I'm tired of fighting for just me

This ain't my American dream
