American Dream
Ayo it seem we chasing thee american dream/
But little do we know it's all part of the scheme/
See they get you to sign on the dotted line/
You caught lunching man/
Forgetting that it's dinner time/
We all want the crib and the nice wheel/
And the iced out jewels to attract girls/
But the drive and the motive is all wrong/
I'm only tryna show you the truth through this song/
My Gramps always said work smarter not harder/
And if you want it all that bad than work harder/
We all got a dream that we tryna catch/
So if God gave you the world/
Could you handle it?/
Situation ain't looking stink cause you got the mint/
But it's peace, joy and love that you lacking in/
Having it all ain't all what it seem/
I tell that to myself only because/
It seems we chasing thee american dream/
It seems we chasing thee american dream/
It seems we chasing thee american dream/
The People high itself got the lowest self esteem
It seems we chasing that american dream/
It seems we chasing thee american dream/
It seems we chasing that american dream/
The People high itself got the lowest self esteem/
The prettiest people do the ugliest things/
I had a dream like MLK/
To one day stop the violence and hate/
And if words can kill/
Then I'd probably be assassinated by what they saying/
But I won't let that phase C/
I'm just walking where God directs me/
I am whoever I say I am/
And if I wasn't then why would I say I am/
Look the truth of the matter is we ain't tryna change it/
Blaming politicians for mistakes that we made and/
It's getting way out of hand/
And Lord we all need direction in this crazy land/
I seen a shirt that said Buck Fush/
Turn it around oh that's how you feel? Bush?
Well if you want changes than change yourself/
And that's real/
It seems we chasing thee american dream/
It seems we chasing thee american dream/
It seems we chasing thee american dream/
The People high itself got the lowest self esteem
It seems we chasing that american dream/
It seems we chasing thee american dream/
It seems we chasing that american dream/
The People high itself got the lowest self esteem/
The prettiest people do the ugliest thing/
But little do we know it's all part of the scheme/
See they get you to sign on the dotted line/
You caught lunching man/
Forgetting that it's dinner time/
We all want the crib and the nice wheel/
And the iced out jewels to attract girls/
But the drive and the motive is all wrong/
I'm only tryna show you the truth through this song/
My Gramps always said work smarter not harder/
And if you want it all that bad than work harder/

It seems we chasing thee american dream/
It seems we chasing thee american dream/
It seems we chasing thee american dream/

It seems we chasing that american dream/
It seems we chasing thee american dream/
It seems we chasing that american dream/

It seems we chasing thee american dream/
It seems we chasing that american dream/
The People high itself got the lowest self esteem/
The prettiest people do the ugliest thing/
