American Dreamin' Lyrics

Screen flicker, thoughts thicker than molasses,

Phone app scrolls, truth's molasses,

Kids in cages, news in fragments,

Dreams deferred, life's harsh detachment

American dream, what's the scheme?

Lost in the matrix, chasing cream,

Reality split, we inbetween,

Life ain't all it's cracked to seem

Politicians talk, words like riddles,

Some eat steaks, some folk on griddles,

Numb to war zones, streets be middles,

Frozen heartbeats, we the brittle

American dream, what's the scheme?

Lost in the matrix, chasing cream,

Reality split, we inbetween,

Life ain't all it's cracked to seem

Window to the soul, shattered glass,

Hope on layaway, future's past,

Voices muted, shadows cast,

Wasted minutes don't seem to last

American dream, what's the scheme?

Lost in the matrix, chasing cream,

Reality split, we inbetween,

Life ain't all it's cracked to seem
