American Dream Lyrics - Jay-z

Dreamed of you this mornin' 

Then came the dawn and I thought you were here with me 

If you could only see how much I love you 

That's all, that's all, baby 

 

Oh no, I'll never give up on you 

(I never felt that before) 

Oh no, I'll never give up on you 

(I never felt that before) 

 

Oh no, I'll never give up on you 

(I never felt that before) 

But there's always 

(That's all that's all) 

 

This is the shit you dream about with the homie steamin' out 

Back-back-backin' them Beemer's out 

Seems as our plans to get a grant 

Then go off to college, didn't pan or even out

We need it now, we need a town 

We need a place to pitch, we need a mound 

For now, I'm just a lazy boy 

Big dreamin' in my La-Z-Boy 

 

In the clouds of smoke, been playin' this Marvin 

Mama forgive me, should be thinkin' 'bout Harvard 

But that's too far away, niggas are starvin' 

Ain't nothin' wrong with aim, just gotta change the target 

 

I got dreams of baggin' snidd-ow the size of pillows 

I see pies every time my eyes clidd-ose 

I see rides, sixes, I gotta get those 

Life's a bitch, I hope that I make her over, though 

 

Oh no, I'll never give up on you 

(I never felt that before) 

American dreamin' 

Oh no, I'll never give up on you 

(I never felt that before) 

It's just American dreamin'

Oh no, I'll never give up on you 

(I never felt that before) 

American dreamin' 

But there's always 

(That's all, that's all) 

 

Now see, the life's right there 

And it seems right there, it's not quite near 

And it's not like we're professionals movin' the decimals 

Know where to cop? Nah, got a connect? No 

 

Who under heaven knows how to be successful 

Need a Personal Jesus, I'm in Depeche Mode 

They say it's celestial, it's all in the stars 

Like Tony Caruso, how you played the card 

 

Y'all ain't fuckin' with me 

The ironies are, had all coast better before he was bars 

Now let's start, on your mark 

Get set, let's go, get out the car 

 

Goin' in circles, it's a vicious cycle 

This is a crash course, this ain't high school 

Wake up, Muttley, you're dreamin' again 

Your own reality show, the season begins 

 

Oh no, I'll never give up on you 

(I never felt that before) 

American dreamin' 

Oh no, I'll never give up on you 

(I never felt that before) 

It's just American dreamin' 

 

Oh no, I'll never give up on you 

(I never felt that before) 

American dreamin' 

But there's always 

(That's all, that's all) 

 

Step one in this process, scramble up in your projects 

And head to the heights where big coke is processed 

You gotta convince 'em that you not from the Precinct 

Please speak slow, 'cause he no speakey no English 

 

If he takes a likin' after a couple of trips 

If your money is straight, he's gon' give you consignment 

You're now in a game where only time can tell 

Survive the droughts, I wish you well 

 

Survive the droughts, I wish you well 

How sick am I? I wish you health 

I wish you wheels, I wish you wealth 

I wish you insight so you could see for yourself 

 

You could see the signs, when the jackets is schemin' 

And the cops is comin', you could read their mind 

You could see from behind, you could redefine 

The game as we know it, one dream at a time, I'm American dreamin' 

 

Oh no, I'll never give up on you 

(I never felt that before) 

American dreamin' 

Oh no, I'll never give up on you 

(I never felt that before) 

American dreamin' 

 

Oh no, I'll never give up on you 

(I never felt that before) 

American dreamin' 

But there's always 

(That's all, that's all) 

American dreamin' 

 

Oh baby 

But there's always 

(That's all, that's all) 

But there's always 

(That's all, that's all)
