lyrics

We're out here doing what it takes in this land of broken promises.
Who will save us?
Who will save us?

The Hustler and the Cheater, the Gambler and the Dealer on the sidelines trying to nickel and dime, stealing all your time.
You worked hard all your life, got a brand new ride but you're in the back seat, can't control your destiny, stuck in the irony.

Oh, this American life...
Bought and sold the right, to be free is to fight.
Oh, this American dream...
It's not at all what it seems, but I'm still believing, in this American life.

When you were younger they told you that you could do anything, you could be anything, to just follow your dreams.
They don't tell you how much it costs, the golden years that get lost in between, privilege and inequality, the harsh reality.

Oh, this American life...
Bought and sold the right, to be free is to fight.
Oh, this American dream...
It's not at all what it seems, but I'm still believing, in this American life.
