The American Dream Is a ghost story To scare you stiff and keep you still They weave the worry into your collar Breathe down your neck, cold chill Don't teach you when you're young Or tell you when you're older They'll greet you with the right hand While the left goes for the holster The real world is a blindfold Now get in line and do what you're told Face value is a mask Worn to throw us off Fed all the hearsay From the tablecloth Don't believe anything that you hear And only half of what you see Don't be so naive Understand that I've been doing this I've been doing that Follow all these rules Stickin' to the path See the aftermath that I have witnessed You can see that I'm a victim of their little games Lock me in the cage, throw away the key Strip me of my freedom, but you wait and see My energy's been building for a minute I'm about to kill it, make 'em feel it And I've been beat down so much That their threats ain't phasing me I have a hunch what's really going on The real world is a blindfold Now get in line and do what you're told Face value is a mask Worn to throw us off Fed all the hearsay From the tablecloth Don't believe anything that you hear And only half of what you see Don't be so naive Intelligence is artificial Ignorance subliminal They stole our character and called us criminals Intelligence is artificial Ignorance subliminal They stole our character and called us criminals Has freedom become Just a figure of speech A myth just like The American dream Face value is a mask Worn to throw us off Fed all the hearsay From the tablecloth Don't believe anything that you hear And only half of what you see Don't be so naive Intelligence is artificial Ignorance subliminal They stole our character and called us criminals Intelligence is artificial Ignorance subliminal They stole our character and called us criminals Face value is a mask Worn to throw us off Face value is a mask Worn to throw us off
