American Dream is not a dream, it’s an unplaced nightmare.
It is a song that arose from anger, from the emotional swindle.
Those, like us who were born under this little gift, which some call art, usually suffer a little more from this nightmare.
Because we do not understand how to provoke it, but we know that someone may want to bump us into it.
American Dream speaks to the resentful without talent, to those who seek success in the trend and stab themselves.
Those who live claiming the dreams of others with hallucinatory frauds and childishly vengeful. To the wolves disguised as sheep, or rather, as lambs. Because of this unfortunately called people, don't know how to do anything other than dust, and other times also a lot of smoke.
And an artist, people say on the street, is the one who creates. the one who reinvents himself day by day, and not the one who destroys. This is dedicated to all the artists who had to deal with some “mirror hitman”. The best revenge is to never stop creating.
And here we are, resurfacing with a song that gave us back the desire to do and share. because thanks to this piece of art, today we are braver, more thoughtful, more sensitive, and a little more empathetic with those that haven’t realized yet, which side of the path they are on.
Welcome to this new stage of Arnoldo's lizards, the best way to revive after so much pain is by inviting you to shout with us.
‘’This is your American dream, but not mine’’
lyrics
You go to sleep
But they could not.
You are about to reach
Kicking innocents dreams.
On rich lands
You are only looking for shine.
The mirror of your soul
Don’t want to watch you anymore.
You gonna get
But not for your own work.
You don’t have the guts
The world will never be yours.
We already know
Who would you be
In the story of the shepherd and the wolf.
This is the american dream
That you want to live
But mine not...
Mine not not not
Not not not not
In many movies
They try to avoid you
Who can believe that a star
Shine out of the sky?
Not not not
Not not not...
Not not not
Not not not not...
You go to sleep …(But they could not)
You are about to reach... (Kicking innocents dreams)
On rich lands... (You are only looking for shine)
The mirror of your soul... (Don’t want to watch you anymore)
You gonna get... (But not for your own work.)
You don’t have the guts... (The world will never be yours.)
We already know.. .(Who would you be)
In the story of.... (The shepherd and the wolf.)
This is the american dream
That you want to live
But mine not...
Mine not not not
Not not not not
In many movies
They try to avoid you
¿Who can believe that a star
Shine out of the sky?
You go to sleep …(But they could not)
You are about to reach... (Kicking innocents dreams)
On rich lands... (You are only looking for shine)
The mirror of your soul... (Don’t want to watch you anymore)
You gonna get... (But not for your own work.)
You don’t have the guts... (The world will never be yours.)
We already know.. .(Who would you be)
In the story of.... (The shepherd and the wolf.)
"This is the American Dream that I want to live and for you
It's yours, it's mine, mine, mine, mine, mine"
But mine not...
Mine not not not
Not not not not
In many movies
They try to avoid you
¿Who can believe that a star
Shine out of the sky?
You go to sleep …(But they could not)
You are about to reach... (Kicking innocents dreams)
On rich lands... (You are only looking for shine)
The mirror of your soul... (Don’t want to watch you anymore)
You gonna get... (But not for your own work.)
You don’t have the guts... (The world will never be yours.)
We already know.. .(Who would you be)
In the story of.... (The shepherd and the wolf.)
