Killer Mike - American Dream lyrics

(Radio Announcer) "The American dream had
A price tag and only
One man in a million was
Hungry enough to pay" hey man
You can save that morality for your minister
And you can save that speech for
The sisters of the church
This is America, jack
This is all about corporate
Takeovers and money makeovers
Wealth matters and poverty doesn't
We all say we love Martin Luther King, but
We all wanna live like Don King, don't we?
God bless America! God bless America!
Home of the Rockefellers
Home of the Carnegies
Home of the end justifies the means
Legitimized through larceny
"Fuck the king! Fuck your taxes!" is
What they told their masters
Before they became our masters
So rebelling against power is natural
And being an outlaw is actually

My American dreams, my American schemes
Fueled by American greed
My American dreams, my American schemes
Fueled by American dreams
It's American me, it's American me
By any means necessary
American me, my American dreams
Fueled by American schemes it's American me
In America the crooks get the castles
Never see a Rothschild
Or Rockefeller shackled
While Rockefeller Drug Laws keep
Us in a shackle
Eventually this weed'll be as
Legal as tobacco
By then every CEO I hope will be a black
Though message to the felon, keep sellin'
My brethren
The end of an era soon coming I tell 'em
Bumpy Johnson showed us the way
Don't fail him
Big Meech united all the streets
They jailed him
Pablo fought the government so
They killed him
Probably took his bricks and brought 'em
To us to deal 'em my critics say I celebrate
The dope dealer probably
Cause I'm pro whatever prevents
Me from feeling poverty
For the same reason Prescott
Bush worked with Nazis
The same reason Kennedy's dad ran the rum
By any means necessary I will overcome

You become a sociopath flipping birds
The same mindstate it takes
To build a Bilderberg
Or an Enron or any other big con
That could fleece a million
People out of billions
I'm trying to get a cheaper price, you know
A bigger bag
Mexican work how American is that?
As American as steering in a German car
Fucking a Russian chick snorting
Coke from Colombia
