I Am Nation - The American Dream lyrics

Perfection is an ugly sight ill never wish for only blue skies or pretty white clouds to drift on by tell me why do we lie i never want a clean-- cut green lawn with a perfect picket fence to walk along painted with-- thick white paste without a trace-- of specific taste CHORUS society has brainwashed me to believe well never achieve our dreams We used to call it i thought we were through with kings and queens but youre going nowhere without a team oh yeah we used to call it the american dream why wake up to singing birds when others want a chance to be heard? if i was a fox, the rooster would know its place by dawn, feathersd hold my gaze cookie cutter houses lined upon my street forming gridlines inhumanely neat wheres my house theyre all the same this is such a stupid game CHORUS BRIDGE the sun will shine on sundays flowers bloom in may birds and bees glide happily but heres the reality someone lives in poverty as one lives in wealth someone gains a victory one loses health the ashes of foundation lay all scattered about while were all left so empty as we struggle to figure out American Dream American Dream
