Working hard from day to day now, I get a check that barely lasts I'm just another no choice member in Uncle Sam's desperation class Finding it hard to face my wife, new kid born out of shotgun life Twenty years old and I love them both, see no sunshine in our skies
Silently we pray for turbulence to break How much more financial stress can we all take?
Getting closer to our limit We chase the penthouse from the basement Our current rat race, we run to stand still This is our fading American Dream
Bad news coming in, these higher rent rates gouge us thin The sands of time are running down as we slip further behind
Bleeding my family, they're stretched too Eviction notes, what can I do? Twenty years old, feel my life's on hold Yell at a school-taught God, oh why?
Silently we pray for turbulence to break How much more financial stress can we all take?
Getting closer to our limit We chase the penthouse from the basement Our current rat race, we run to stand still This is our fading American Dream
Have we ever been above water? Do we ever see ourselves coming out of it alive?
Getting closer to our limit We chase the penthouse from the basement Our current rat race, we run to stand still This is our fading American Dream
I got no time no to go and cry now Leave for a second job, don't want to go poor I'm just searching for my dignity This is our fading American Dream This is our fading American Dream This is our fading American DreamTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
