ain’t meant for my ass - cyd duncan, corey duncan, cyd lyrics

Loading...

american dream, ain’t meant for my ass the sound of a truck engine, it’s starting to knock
it’s a driving, anxious rhythm the anger is an explosive
it’s a low, constant burn of someone working a double
and still seeing the savings account shrink

got another notice taped to the front door pink bit of paper saying they need more than
what i sent them, what i had to give and the life they tell us that we’re supposed to live
i’m bleeding over time till my hands are raw finding brand new loopholes and god’s own law
just to stay afloat, just to pay the rent but the money’s gone before the check is spent

and the man on the news keeps talking proud and fast
but the american dream, ain’t meant for my ass
it’s a carrot on a stick for the working class
and the american dream, ain’t meant for my ass

i come home angry, kick the mud off my boots tired of digging for these bitter roots
she asked me how my day was, i just shake my head
there’s a million things i wish that i had said
instead i stare a hole right through the kitchen wall

feeling big and useless and scared and small she puts a plate in front of me and turns away
and that silence has more than a man can say
cause the man on the news keeps talking proud and fast
but the american dream, ain’t meant for my ass

it’s a carrot on a stick for the working class
and the american dream, ain’t meant for my ass
