The American Dream used to be fulfilling

Bright eyed people who worked hard and were so giving

We all had the believe we could achieve something one day

But now, that dream has slowly gone astray

Now, we work hard for a dream we cannot share

Our careers are just jobs we have to work and the money is the only thing we care

It feels like that we make work hard, but have lost all known fun

All we want to do is make enough money to make sure we do not turn into a straggly bum

Money & Default have now replaced Dreams & Goals

Now families wander around, lost and seemingly like some lost soul

We were once told we all could graduate, a dreams would come true

But schools for many is a something that has slowly become unglued

What happened to the American dream?

Has it been torn apart at the seams?

Is this new future of remorse and despair, our goals never achieved?

Are we to believe that all of our goals are never to be believed?

Our new ideals are to try to stick together

Be as one and wear this hardship, whatever the weather

In this new age of debt, hardship, loss, and uncertainty

A new America is being born slowly indeed
