My feet hurt but it’s not from dancing.
I’m exhausted but it’s not from living the dream but dreaming too much.
This is the American dream? I would like to make a complaint.
Finish high school, go to collage, buy a car, buy a house, start a family.
Fuck the American dream- this is the year I am rewriting and making my version of the American Dream. This fake dream only benefits the Government and not the people.
When is it time for the people? I think now is a great time for the population to take charge and have a reset of the American dream- time for a new definition of what it means to live the American Dream.

I’m all grown up, what now?
Adults lied. That's enough said with this rant. In the first grade, we were asked what we wanted to be when we grew up. From nurses to doctors to astronauts to race car drivers. How many first graders became what they wanted? Even better, how many first-graders were disappointed in their choice as an adult? Or even become what they actually wanted? How long did it take to get it there?
