Alright When success is equated with excess The ambition for excess wrecks us As the top of the mind becomes the bottom line Where success is equated with excess If your time had been nothing but money I start to feel really bad for you honey Maybe honey put your money Where your mouth's been running If your time had been nothing but money I want out of this machine It doesn't feel like freedom This ain't my American dream I want to live and die for bigger things I'm tired of fighting for just me This ain't my American dream Success is equated with excess When you're fighting for the Beamer, the Lexus As the heart and the soul breathe in the company goals Where success is equated with excess I want out of this machine It doesn't feel like freedom This ain't my American dream I want to live and die for bigger things I'm tired of fighting for just me This ain't my American dream 'Cause baby's always talking about her ring And talk has always been the cheapest thing Is it true, would you do what I want you to If I show with the right amount of bling Like a puppet on a monetary string Maybe we've been caught singing Red, white, blue, and green But that ain't my America That ain't my American dream This ain't my American dream That ain't my American dream I want to live and die for bigger things I want to live and die for bigger things I'm tired of fighting for just me This ain't my American dream
