American Dreamin' lyrics

Dreamed of you this morning

Then came the dawn, and I thought you were here with me

If you could only see

How much I love you

That's all that's all that's all baby

Oh no, I'll never give up on you

I never felt that before

But there's always...

That's all that's all...



This is the shit you dream about with the homie steamin' out

Back-back-backing them Beemer's out

Seems as our plans to get a grant

Then go off to college, didn't pan or even out

We need it now, we need a town

We need a place to pitch, we need a mound

For now, I'm just a lazy boy

Big dreaming in my La-Z-Boy

In the clouds of smoke, been playin' this Marvin

Mama forgive me, should be thinkin' bout Harvard

But that's too far away, niggas are starving

Ain't nothin' wrong with aim, just gotta change the target

I got dreams of baggin' snidd-ow the size of pillows

I see pies everytime my eyes clidd-ose

I see rides, sixes, I gotta get those

Life's a bitch, I hope to not make her a widow



Oh no, I'll never give up on you

I never felt that before

It's just american dreamin'

Oh no, I'll never give up on you

I never felt that before

It's just american dreamin'

Oh no, I'll never give up on you

I never felt that before

American dreamin'

But there's always...

That's all that's all...



Now see, the life's right there

And it seems right there

It's not quite near,

And it's not like we're professionals movin' the decimals

Know where to cop? Nah! got a connect? No!

Who under Heaven know how to be successful

Need a Personal Jesus, I'm in Depeche Mode

They say it's celestial, it's all in the stars

Like Tony Caruso, how you played the card

Ya'll ain't fucking with me!

The ironies are, had all coast better before he was bars

Now lets start, on your mark

Get set, lets go-get out the car!

Going in circles, it's a vicious cycle

This is a crash course, this ain't high school

Wake up, Muttley, you're dreamin' again

Your own reality show, the season begins



Oh no, I'll never give up on you

I never felt that before

It's just american dreamin'

Oh no, I'll never give up on you

I never felt that before

It's just american dreamin'

Oh no, I'll never give up on you

I never felt that before

American dreamin'

But there's always...

That's all that's all...



Step One in this process, scramble up in your projects

And head to the heights where big coke is processed

You gotta convince 'em that you not from the Precinct

Please speak slow, cause he no speakey no english

If he takes a liking after a couple of trips

If your money is straight, he's gon' give you consignment

You're now in a game where only time can tell

Survive the droughts, I wish you well...

Survive the droughts? I wish you well?

How sick am I? I wish you HEALTH

I wish you wheels, I wish you wealth

I wish you insight so you could see for yourself

You could see the signs, when the jackets is schemin'

And the cops is comin', you could read they mind

You could see from behind, you could redefine

The game as we know it, one dream at a time

I'm american dreamin'



Oh no, I'll never give up on you

I never felt that before

It's just american dreamin'

Oh no, I'll never give up on you

I never felt that before

It's just american dreamin'

Oh no, I'll never give up on you

I never felt that before

American dreamin'

But there's always...

That's all that's all...

American' Dreamin...
