lyrics

American
Dreaming

Verse 1:

I’m waking while
Living in dreams
Find a vacant space
To let my brain soak
Being that quote
I spoke
That's the meaning of dope
Walking tight ropes
Scheming heathens
With mirrors and smoke
Try confusing the
Realness I wrote
Smoke fire to ash
Desires will past
Want it all 
But will it all last?
Still I grind
Investing time
Like I own it
But it's not mine
I wake repeating melodies
Dreaming of future memories
Possibilities create results
Lighting bolts with
Inner sight
See a whisper
On a winter night
With a little light
Take a picture
That's life.

Chorus:

American Dream
The American
We living the

American Dream
The American Dream

The American Dream


Verse 2

I've been blessed
With tragedies
That mold a man
When tested got a
Steady hand
You say I can't
I say I can
Executing plans
Representing sturdy land
Opening doors
Taking a stand
Yet to reach
5 hundred grand
A hundred thousand
Million fans like the
Son of Sam
Form into
A grain of sand
Situated where I'm sitting
Looking like a
Prime position
To win it big
Through crates we picking
Listening to
Greatest hits we dig
Creating lists
What to accomplish
On different topics
Kicking ass and
Staying modest
That’s the hardest
Part of being a
Lyrical martial artist
Running up in the
Deadly zone
Set it right
Sacrificing sleepless nights.

Chorus:

American dream
The American dream
We living the
American dream
The American dream
We got the
American dream
The American dream
We living the
American dream
The American dream


Verse 3:

I see my ego receding
That's my point of view
The appointed few
That's needed
To be the new leaders
See it too
Taking a ride
Out of my mind
Evicted
Places only
Few can find
No signs telling distance
That fine line
Is still a misprint?
Between what’s yours and mine
Scheming up some mischief
I keep my eyes open
Sleeping
That's a luxury
Funny how the
Ladies love me
When I'm living comfortably
Money never made me
So I'm never
Falling suddenly
And even at the
Bottom
The earth still under me
Coming up struggling
Drumming up a hustle
Was timid
Now
The limits
I'm pushing
So vivid
I live it.
