All we really want is a piece of the American pie
Don't shut your eyes
You know half of these people
Out here wasting time
If you got a dream you better follow it
I told her: don't be so shy
'Cause if you really want
You can get it babe
That's the American life
Uh
Just stop it
They tell us things, we fall for it
So as long as we keep believing
They gon' bet ya they gon' keep on feeding the American lie
That American pie
Watch
Half of these niggas got
[?] that they don't like
Half of these niggas get
Lost but they don't fight
Half of these people give
Up on their dreams, at 23
They tell you, you work hard enough
Then shit will come at you
But then they take your money
And they tell you what to do
But I don't wanna [?]
I see you taking all the food
Nigga thought that I was dumb enough to choose...
The American pie
Don't shut your eyes
You know half of these people
Out here wasting time
If you got a dream you better follow it
I told her: don't be so shy
'Cause if you really want
You can get it babe
That's the American life
It's better that you are here for me now
Like the person of your dreams is right there sitting on your couch
But they don't want you
They ask:
"How many dirty people have you even gone through?"
And you twiddle your thumbs and say:
I don't know, maybe, one, two or three, shit?"
I'm just not keeping count
I knock on their door but
They tryna keep me out
America is a bitch, but
She don't want you unless you're rich
Oh baby I just want to kiss your little [?]
But I just keep forgetting
I don't got a trust for her
This cage gon make a nigga bust some
If you have friends in high places
You can suck some
But me I think I would rather put the gloves... (on)
The American pie
Don't shut your eyes
You know half of these people
Out here wasting time
If you got a dream you better follow it
I told her: don't be so shy
'Cause if you really want
You can get it babe
That's the American life
Uh
Just stop it
They tell us things, we fall for it
So as long as we keep believing
They gon' bet ya they gon' keep on feeding the American lie
That American pie
