[Intro] Although you spent all of twenty-seven years, acquiring this house, this furniture, this position. Although you spent forty years raising this child, these children. Nothing, none of it belongs to you
[Verse 1] I steal and rob I kill my brother just to take his job I took his wife and made her children starve I'm all pulled through shit, forcing down my own religion Only cook that's in my kitchen, I ain't gon' listen to y'all Fuck would I do that for I'm a man, I'm a beast, trying to make a two year-old Trying to make the whole damn city know my name And when we get the house on top, this gon' be the same American dream
[Pre-Chorus] Park it in the private lot Tell me that I'm doing too much But you know you don't want me to stop I could sell it all away Everyone here raised on cream Cash rules everything around me That's American scheme
[Chorus] I want some, I want some American dream life I want some, I want some Is it what it seem like I want some, I want some American dream life I want some, I want some Aww yeah... American scheme I want some, I want some American dream I want some, I want some American dream life I want some, I want some
[Verse 2] The courtroom was mobbed They came to watch the judge go sentence me off I said "your Honor, yeah I stand before God" I take the blessings and the the curses For the better or the worses They still want to judge and clutch on the cross Mmmm fuck would they do that for It's all natural baby, getting high in the studio Trying to make a whole damn city sing my songs But man when you get there, you gonna break some balls And now baby we on Mhmmm, party in the parking lot Handle to the face, my arm on her waist No, she ain't gon' tell me stop This ain't the life we chose, it's the one we seen And this about as good as it gets in American dreams
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Outro] The owners of this country know the truth. It's called "American dream" because you have to be asleep to believe it
