In the land of the free Where you could be whatever you wan be Where ever you came from, whoever you are Put ya hands up and reach for the stars But were far from the ideals, I feel I'ma need to be real, cause life's ill And the dream is real But the dream's infected, greed's infested In materials things, so we fling material Till every body is fling material Till life ain't ethereal Till happiness gets soggy like cereal But here we go, on the quest for imperial Material I need to succeed before my burial But I don't see no picket fence, I see ignorance I don't see no inner sense, I see indolence Get rich quick like I'ma get this money I'ma get this money, baby I'ma get this money And everything's fun and everything's sunny Till two teenagers kill a girl for money The game ain't easy Trying to be seen in a world we ain't seen in So everybody's scheming Greed, lust, envy, we American dreamin' Cause the game ain't easy Trying to be seen in a world we ain't seen in So everybody's scheming While I'm American dreamin' And what are we chasing? In this race where it seems were embracing Selfishness, morality's vacant So we don't got to earn, it's all about taking In the land where the snakes are rewarded Mistakes are aborted and fate is distorted And the cake is contorted Cause hard working people want great but can't afford it So, who's in the dream? And who's an insomniac, with no cream? And what is this cream, what does it mean? Tell me how do you measure a man off his gleam? And not his integrity, not his compassion Not his soul, but what is he flashing And what are we asking our kids to become And what have we, what have we, what have we done? When Paris Hilton's exalted Virtue assaulted and teaching is halted And His vision is altered Please, we need to dream we can all get peace The game ain't easy Trying to be seen in a world we ain't seen in So everybody's scheming Greed, lust, envy, we American dreamin' Cause the game ain't easy Trying to be seen in a world we ain't seen in So everybody's scheming While I'm American dreamin' In the land of the greed Where the cash counts more than the creed And your skin counts more than your soul And the rich are getting richer and the broke stay broke And the trend in the nation Is overlook substance in lieu of presentation I'm thinking hope was slain Till a man came through and said "America can change" So I believe what he speaks See my president's a role model, take heed As we can change the perception Of a nation to change the complexion Of our thoughts to elect a collection Of individuals to bring us correction I'm feeling hope let it gleam And thank you Dr. King cause we living in your dream The game ain't easy Trying to be seen in a world we ain't seen in So everybody's scheming Greed, lust, envy, we American dreamin' Cause the game ain't easy Trying to be seen in a world we ain't seen in So everybody's scheming While I'm American dreamin'
