American Dream Lyrics

Anesthetized so he would not feel the pain
In poverty this man became enslaved
He could not fight, he could not run
The corporate greed was just too much
Dehumanized, we couldn't see the rage
We locked him up and threw away the key
The weakened man, who lost his will to be
Another one brought down by society

A sick society
A product of our disease
We're a product of our disease
A victim of the corporate greed
The corporate greed
Another victim
Living the american dream

Immortalized, the man with no shame
And for his crime he wouldn't serve a day
The gilded man they could not touch,
The key of life that he would clutch
Brutalized, the man in the cage
The hands that bind turn seconds into days
The impoverished man held captive by the greed
A another one brought down by society

A sick society
A product of our disease
We're a product of our disease
A victim of the corporate greed
The corporate greed
Another victim
Living the american dream

As we dream one man's dream
Becomes another man's nightmare
As we sell our souls
How wicked we become
We embrace the hand that beats us,
Society marches on
Reality? Who's reality?
Just in this scary place
Where I should not be
I should not be

Reality?
This is reality.
For every person hooked
Gets me closer to my dreams
