Breathe out, breathe in
American oxygen
Every breath I breathe
Chasin' this American Dream
We sweat for a nickel and a dime
Turn it into an empire
Breathe in, this feeling
American, american oxygen
American oxygen
Breathe in, this feeling
American, american oxygen
I say, you see, this is the American Dream
Young girl, hustlin'
On the other side of the ocean
You can be anything at all
America, America
I say, can you see?
Just close your eyes and breathe
Breathe out, breathe in
American oxygen
Every breath I breathe
Chasin' this American Dream
We sweat for a nickel and a dime
Turn it into an empire
Breathe in, this feeling
American, american oxygen
American oxygen
Breathe in, this feeling
American, american oxygen
American oxygen
Breathe in, this feeling
American, american oxygen
I say, you see, this is the American Dream
Young boy, hustlin'
Tryna get the wheels in motion
But he can be anything at all
America, America
I say, can you see?
Just close your eyes and breathe
Breathe out, breathe in
American oxygen
Every breath I breathe
Chasin' this American Dream
We sweat for a nickel and a dime
Turn it into an empire
Breathe in, this feeling
American, american oxygen
This is the new America
We are the new America
This is the new America
We are the new America
This is the new America
We are the new America
This is the new America
We are the new America
Breathe out, breathe in
American oxygen
Every breath I breathe
Chasin' this American Dream
We sweat for a nickel and a dime
Turn it into an empire
Breathe in, this feeling
American, American oxygen
American oxygen
Breathe in, this feeling
American, american oxygen
American, oxygen
Breathe in, this feeling
American, american oxygen
This is the new America
We are the new America
