[B.o.B] Well I got up today and I put on my shades and I said I was fine (Im fine) but everyone knew that I was lying if you look at my face and the way that I behave you will still see a disguise even if you was blind (damn) [Chorus] but now Im saying bye, goodbye American Dreaming American dreaming its not that hard to find cause most of the time Im American sleeping I barely can see it but now Im saying bye, goodbye As I rhyme and I rap the average listener is blind to the fact that my mind has been tapped I carry the World as it lies on my back my spine coulda cracked so please pay me no mind as I laugh this is all a stage every line is an act k**ing the American dream with a trap like a axe, Ima put it in a sack Ima put it in the back of the black cadilliac cause Im travelling some say that Im throw like a javelin
Im really tryna expose to the galaxy then break off the mould to normalities people called the election a tradegy looking at the screen like this cant be happening I aint saying that Im some kind of activist but someting be attacking us [Chorus] Okay, bring it back I was filling my time just posing like a mannequine you pa** by tryna make it one day to the big league where the girls aint hard to find all the time I was just searching a plastic promised land and I got myself entangled in a corporated plan (sign here) but a dream is nothing and its everything at the same time so you never know when you might wake up and find you was just living a lies goodbye, just like Trey said goodbye America, Goodbye cause anything but the truth is a waste of time [Chorus]
