raye zaragoza – american dream lyrics
[verse 1]
i’ve been thinking about the news
daddy leaves it on all day through
i’ve been thinking about the wars
and to be honest, i can’t take it anymore
[post-verse 1]
i hear you everyday
the awful words you say
[refrain]
but hate can’t be
the face of the american dream
[verse 2]
i’ve been thinking about my life
and how one day i wanna be a mother and a wife
i’ve been scared of that thought too
in a world of struggle, what are we gonna do?
[post-verse 2]
i hear you everyday
saying, “it’s gonna be okay”
[refrain]
but hate can’t be
the face of the american dream
[chorus]
and i know
we’ve got a long way to go
but i’ve got to believe
that change is a choice, and it can start with me
[verse 3]
and i’ve been thinking about our mother
and how they took her away from her people
put her in a boarding school
away from her brother, sister, and culture
[post-verse 3]
i can hear her every night
saying, “we’ve gotta make this right”
[refrain]
’cause hate can’t be
the face of the american dream
[chorus]
and i know
we’ve got a long way to go
but i’ve got to believe
that change is a choice, and it can start with me
[outro]
and change is a choice, and it can start with me
and change is a choice, and it can start with you
