The American Dream,
no such thing as "The American Dream"
where if you're a negro, they'll have you scream
point a gun, shoot, and let you bleed;
Until you no longer breathe
The American Dream,
no such thing as "The American Dream"
where refugees are forced to leave
cuffed up, locked up, wanting to grieve
standing alone unable to receive good deeds
The American Dream
no such thing as "The American Dream"
where we don't have opportunities
we can't work without degrees
school loans but debts come in
unsuccessful job, insufficient money
impossible to sustain the family
The American Dream
no such thing as "The American Dream"
where congress and its power always win
the government doesn't care about us
their only goal is to get rich
control its puppets, be extreme
The American Dream,
no such thing as "The American Dream"
where there are no rights or freedom of speech
but still called, "The land of the free"
yet no one is, no one speaks
