The American Dream Video (MV)

The American Dream is what they sold me
But I got nothing in return
For giving all that I had earned
I followed blindly down the path
That's what they told me
But in the end, here I am left
Working til I am out of breath
Go get a job
You're not enough
That's what they say
I guess I'll have to hold my tongue
Don't miss a class
I've had enough
I'll fight this lie and be exactly who I want
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
I've realized I'm not a prisoner in chains
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
I'm breaking free, I'm not a victim to the game
All my life they tried to bury me alive
In Six feet of concrete, but I held on to my pride
I threw a wish into a wishing well
Turns out no one wished me well
On this quest to save my life, mm
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
I've realized I'm not a prisoner in chains
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
I'm breaking free, I'm not a victim to the game
I wanna be somebody, need nobody
To be somebody at all
I wanna be somebody, need nobody
To be somebody at all
I wanna be somebody, need nobody
To be somebody at all
I wanna be somebody, need nobody
To be somebody at all
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
I've realized I'm not a prisoner in chains
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
I'm breaking free, I'm not a victim to the game
