American Dream
Stress is building up in you
You can feel the heat of the day
With your friends now turning a foe
Should you go and make your own way
Should you go out into the world
And show them what you could do
You gotta believe in yourself
You know it's all up
It's all up to you
There are a lot of lazy people
Who can do so many things
But they let doubt get in the way
And stop the moving train
If they could control their fears
And stop worrying about the rain
They would start to see the sunrise
Instead of waking
Instead of waking to pain
Instead of waking to pain
Living in this land of freedom
Where opportunity breathes
There's no excuse for failure
You can have all you see
It's not a question of what you want
It's what you're willing to give
If you can make the sacrifice
You will learn how to live
The American dream
American dream
What's your dream
American dream
You can feel the heat of the day
With your friends now turning a foe
Should you go and make your own way
Should you go out into the world
And show them what you could do
You gotta believe in yourself
You know it's all up
It's all up to you
There are a lot of lazy people
Who can do so many things
But they let doubt get in the way
And stop the moving train
If they could control their fears
And stop worrying about the rain
They would start to see the sunrise
Instead of waking
Instead of waking to pain
Instead of waking to pain
Living in this land of freedom
Where opportunity breathes
There's no excuse for failure
You can have all you see
It's not a question of what you want
It's what you're willing to give
If you can make the sacrifice
You will learn how to live
The American dream
American dream
What's your dream
American dream
