You can relate if you've endured what I've lived through
A nigga's standards lower when the rent's due
Sinful, tough decision become simple
Can't help feel like wasted potential
I'm dying to make a livin', my bosses make a killin'
Payin' bills, yet and still, nothin's fulfillin'
Can't play the hand I'm dealt if I'm a card short
Then when I call the dealer out, I'm the bad sport
That's a metaphor or somethin' of that sort
You want the truth, I'm 'a give you what you ask for
Hold up, give you the truth like it's the cash drawer
Truth is, times is hard, wish I could fast forward

Work, pay debt, live beyond your means
It's the american dream
Cut corners, 'cause the ends justifies the means
It's the american dream
Work, pay debt, live beyond your means
It's the american dream
Cut corners, 'cause the ends justifies the means
It's the american

Dr. SKarabus

Slave to your house mortgage and car loan
If you lost your job, no-one to call on
The thought alone gives you quite a bit of stress
It's nothin' for the bank to have your assets repossessed
You ain't a child now, lost your innocence
But still a small fish in this big pond in a sense
From high school, to college, then into debt
Got you a diploma now collections in effect
Now they call your mom at 3 a.m. to send a threat
She co-signed the student loan, her name was on the check
No disrespect but you should've thought it through
You're still dreamin' gotta wake up and make it true

Work, pay debt, live beyond your means
It's the american dream
Cut corners, 'cause the ends justifies the means
It's the american dream
Work, pay debt, live beyond your means
It's the american dream
Cut corners, 'cause the ends justifies the means
It's the american

Wake from the american dream, back to reality
Paint yourself a gorgeous life, worthy of a gallery
Find a job within your interest paying decent salary
Reamin humble but gain your confidence through flattery
Work for a better future, still enjoy the present
Fund your own goals 'cause you're still your best investment
Couldn't tell you how many times I've been told
That everything that glistens ain't gold
If it sounds too good to be true, then it is
Swallow your emotions when handling your biz
Avoid the lies, prioritize, be organized
Don't be like them other guys, otherwise

Work, pay debt, live beyond your means
It's the american dream
Cut corners, 'cause the ends justifies the means
It's the american dream
Work, pay debt, live beyond your means
It's the american dream
Cut corners, 'cause the ends justifies the means
It's the american
