The Alien Chronicles presented by Breal
Coming to you live from not America

Welcome to my world I am what they call an alien

the american body carries the virus.
racism. bigotry. one-sidedness is synonymous.
the residual racial cough is contagious
so what’s the fuss
because

of tolerance and unity
We're killin' with impunity so get that money
Fuckin' America
Fuckin' America

Welcome to the land of closeted tomfoolery
We're dyin' by

I can't remember why I'm staying

You know I never believed 
That this American dream
Was ever meant to be
Something handed to me
But now I'm all out

Of proven fact or fiction
State of shock
We stir the pot
And revel in the mess
Oh, for the American life

Insane but any other day
You wouldn't think twice

Before you preach to me your policy, stop and think
We are not here by ourselves
You just might rethink your beliefs if you would see
We are everybody else

Walking by the light
And you are always on my sight
Keeping you, watching you, with you
Making your world shines more bright
Day becomes dark
Don’t

that you South American
You probably Brazilian (Yeah yeah yeah)
Probably Brazilian
Cause that's what you givin' (Yeah yeah yeah)
That's what you givin'

America
Hijacked by white men who hate
Men who only demonstrate how to
Rock the toxic shock of
Political strychnine
In a genocide of the collective

Lord your mercy we need for change
The knowledge from you we need
Wisdom from you we need
Lord your mercy we need

Will be changed to positive
By

America
Hijacked by white men who hate
Men who only demonstrate how to
Rock the toxic shock of
Political strychnine
In a genocide of the collective

If the culture was not Nigerian
And its not Nigeria
You know so
The American culture
The British culture
Is different from the Nigerian culture
First

oppression
Starting piecing up as the war was digressing
This direction we on course had spawned in '73
We learned to rhyme by spinning stories on competitive

the sum, and divide by the set
Peanut butter flavored American spirit cigarettes
Looking at an altoid can filled with reminiscent memories
All the tragedies

American Dream
By: Matthew Hussey

Never saw it coming
But I’ll ride this wave
I was just humming
And the song took shape
Up to to the highest note

Written by: Gray Griggs

Staring at the Sun

My third eye open,
My throat full of stars.
I was a king.
You were the queen of cars.
In the paper moon,

the feelings aren't real
When she gets out of the car
Looking pop as fuck
Makes you wanna go apply
For an American Express
Then
Spend it on her and wake up

Specifically, the african american
They hate America, but claim America
Hate the flag, the anthem, and every single symbol of her
Two types, of african americans

This is the American way
To silence everything
The little man cannot say
Or is it just today
To control that you cannot say
Strong enough to stand in

No doubt the pow-wow's as loud as the mouth of a shapeshifter
Cuz I orate in more shades than portraits by Monét, I paint pictures with the slang

the cream
The American Dream, I live it too freely
These bunnies badder than Bridgeton
But I don't see 'em just see a regular citizen
Thought I had a Lucy,

and daddy's shine
Funny how the time flies by
Middle of nowhere county fairs
Ferris Wheels, first kiss, double dog dares
Porch swings and lemonade
Texacos

Introduction: 
Are you the victim of the school system?
Do you owe major debt?
Is this the American Dream 
Or is this the American Scheme

Verse 1:

dreamed of
That's my American Beauty

Future combat jacked in
Im talkin metal arms
My psi ops on point
That trigger mental fog
Its getting hard to even talk
