Lyrics

Suffocation. suffocate with no room to breath
Forgive us for 'now' is too late
This is not an american dream
This is no longer an american dream. we're trying to breath underwater
The few, the proud, no longer sing their song
One nation under god, it's us against the world
We've cut the tongue from society, forcing consumption, never hearing "no."
We've brainwashed our children to believe this is destiny
Spoiled rotten, still counting their 1, 2, 3's
Forgive us for 'now' is too late
Forgive us for fueling the flame
This is not an american dream any longer
As we've become spoiled, rotten, counting our 1, 2, 3's
