Summary

inspired by rage against the machine song know your enemy

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?
