American Dream

When success is equated with excess
The ambition for excess wrecks us
As the top of the mind becomes the bottom line
When success is equated with excess

If your time ain't been nothing for 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 want to 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 soul breathing the company goals
Where success is equated with excess

I want out of this machine
It doesn't feel like freedom

This ain't my American dream
I want to 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 singing
Red, white, blue, and green
But that ain't my American dream

This ain't my American dream
I want to live and die for bigger things
I'm tired of fighting for just me
This ain't my American dream


Mirror lyrics:

This ain't my American dream
I'm tired of fighting for just me
I want to live and die for bigger things
This ain't my American dream

But that ain't my American dream
Red, white, blue, and green
Maybe we've been caught singing
Like a puppet on a monetary string

If I show up with the right amount of bling?
Is it true would you do what I want you to
And talk has always been the cheapest thing
'Cause baby's always talkin' 'bout a ring

This ain't my American dream
I'm tired of fighting for just me
I want to live and die for bigger things
This ain't my American dream

It doesn't feel like freedom
I want out of this machine

Where success is equated with excess
As the heart and soul breathing the company goals
When you're fighting for the Beamer, the Lexus
When success is equated with excess

This ain't my American dream
I'm tired of fighting for just me
I want to live and die for bigger things
This ain't my American dream

It doesn't feel like freedom
I want out of this machine

If your time ain't been nothing but money
Maybe honey, put your money where your mouth's been running
I start to feel really bad for you, honey
If your time ain't been nothing for money

When success is equated with excess
As the top of the mind becomes the bottom line
The ambition for excess wrecks us
When success is equated with excess
