american dreams
Summary
American dreams, all American new
The enemies you met and those you never knew,
The teachers who taught you to read and write,
The preachers who taught you to hide and fight,
You lost your patience,
Aching for complacence
What choice do you have?
You submit to the hand the feeds you
American dreams, American nights
You were born with insight and the hunger to fight
You dont stand for brutality,
You won't put up with conformity,
You were not born to be ignorant, no not you
You were born to bite the hand, the one that feeds you
Hypocrisy,
A wife to cook and clean
Compromise,
A husband to work and drink
Remnants of militant poets,
Forgotten by the minds who cant think
Set to remind us of our American Dreams,
Oh is this really my American Creed?
