American Dream
You are brought into your pre-determined life,
a mother and father choose your plan
There is one thing that they don’t realize,
you have your own American Dream in mind.
Beginning your life,
learning to talk and to walk.
Loving your family,
and rolling like a ball on the floor.
An American Dream,
full of happiness and joy.
sharing and giving love,
since you were a boy.
Your plan is set,
you are prepared,
Now all you have to do is,
go out in to the real world.
Kindergarten arrives,
and it flies by,
but little do you realize,
that your graduation day is before your eyes.
You speed through Harvard,
an Ivy League school.
You study hard,
and rewarded by graduating number one.
An American Dream,
full of happiness and joy,
sharing and giving love,
since you were a boy.
Your plan is set,
you are prepared,
now all you have to do is,
go out in to the real world.
You meet a girl,
and she loves you.
Together you are walking down the aisle,
preparing to say, “I do”
You have a handsome boy,
but little does he know.
You have a dream for him.
and you are sure he has a dream for himself.
Your son is now old,
fulfilling the dream of his own.
You now realize,
that he is the pure image of you.
An American Dream,
full of happiness and joy,
sharing and giving love,
since you were a boy.
Your plan is set,
you are prepared.
Now all you have to do is,
go out in to the real world.
