| Switchfoot – American Dream Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
definitely describing corporate america "I want out of this machine, It doesn't feel like freedom".... America is supposed to be The land of the free but all the materialism in this country make it more like a machine, where we are all robots controlled by greed "This isn't my American Dream, I want to live and die for bigger things" the cliche american dream is the white picket fence in the subarbs with a family of four and a nice car.... but Foreman's idea of an American dream is more than that, it's about not conforming to these materialistic ideals.... about "living for than just me" and thinking about others and what you can do to help the people around you |
