American Dream

I had a dream,

I used to believe.

That we believed we are all free

But now I’m lost and cannot see 

When freedom cost And I cannot be

Living in this land of the “MAKE BELIEVE”

Wake up from this American Dream, 

I had a dream and did believe

But could not see, hear or be free,

That, if kept CLOSED,

I was safe, from this reality,

I had this dream,

An AMERICAN Tragedy, 

I had a DREAM,

And I still believed,

But I woke up from this American Dream,

My eyes remembered my reality

Lost in a world with so much tragedy, 

A man once said “I had a dream”

In a place where we all could be free

To believe, be, and dream 

An American dream, still not yet a reality

Lost in belief to this American tragedy

9-11 my heart, closed minded reality 

I had a dream,

I used to believe I once was lost now I see

Woke up from this American Dream

BECOMING THE DREAM LIVING REALITY

Or become the day lost in tragedy 

I had a dream and did believe

I could not see, hear or be free,That if kept CLOSED,I was safe from this reality, 

I had this dream,

This AMERICAN REALITY

My eyes opened

And the world became a sad place to be 

Please Wake up from this American Reality

And become the dream you so longed to be

Or be a sleeping tragedy 

Believe, Speak,

BE FREE FREEDOM WILL RING…

If that’s the last thing I see.

MY AMERICAN DREAM AmericanX
