[Verse 1]
[G]Yes! Yes! Thank you for inviting
me here for my final speech.
Ladies and gentlemen, homosexuals,
lesbians, and transvestites,
Allow me to introduce myself as
the Hungry [Dm]Hustler[G], Afroman.
I am the American Dream. Even though the
government tried to experiment with me
By placing me in the pro[Cm]jects,
[C]I'm still the American Dream.
[G]Surrou[Ab]nded by [G]drugs,
Jeopardized [Dm]my life by l[G]iving
around thugs,
But I'm still the American Dream.
Kicked outta Palmdale High School
Because I was considered a dis[Cm]traction
[G]to the[C] educational [Cm]process.
I've traveled [G]through the complete
metamorphosis [Dm]of the justice s[G]ystem,
And I'm still the American Dream.
Entered Juvenile Hall as a tadpole;
Hopped outta prison as a bull fro[Cm]g,
But [G]I'm still the Amer[C]ican Dream.
[G]The most [Dm]rejected, [G]disrespected,
When I went for a job I was never selected,
But I am still the American Dream.
And right about now,
I find [C]it quite [G]ser[C]endipitous to see
that all of you some- tim[D]in',
[G]Wishy- washy, two- faced,
back- stabbin',
Coniving hypocrites have accumulated here
[Ab]in my midst to persecute my charac[G]ter
With [Ab]such [G]flagrant [Ab]sland[G]erousity,
But I coun[Ab]ter- attack by calling
it constructive criti[G]cism,
An[Ab]d all of your ne[G]gativity has
been recycled into motivation,
And I am [Ab]still [G]the American [C]Dream.
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound
[D]that [G]saved a wretch [D]like [Dm]me.
[Ab]I once [G]was [Ab]lost, but [G]now I'm found; was blind,
but now I [Ab]see.
[G]There's a lot of people out there
who can identify with [C]me.
Young lady right here,
you may be [Ab]a single teenaged mother,
[G]But you are [Dm]still the American
[Ab]Dream.
The lady next to [G]you, [Ab]yes. Your breasts may
[G]not be as big as men think they should [C]be,
[G]But you are [C]still the American Dream.
Young [G]man, you may not be a
[Dm]baller, shot caller,[G]
With 20 inch blades on the impala,
[Ab]but you are [G]still the American Dream.
Young man right here,
you may have spent all your money [C]on a hood rat bitch
[Ab]And didn't get no pussy last night[G],
but you are [Dm]still [Ab]the [G]Amer[Ab]ican Dream[G].
Yes sir, I am just like Ham.
I'm for [Ab]the black [G]man,
The mexican, and even poor white,
[C]All hu[G]man be[C]ings that have no rights. [Ab]So put down yo[Dm]ur past,[G]
pick up your future,
Fol[Ab]low me [G]as we journey
through the Red Sea,
[Ab]Cause I have been to the mountain top,
I've [G]seen the Promised [Ab]Land,
[G]Mine [C]eyes [G]have seen the [C]glory
of the Underground [Ab]Cat egory.
My mind has been de[Dm]livered.
My [Ab]spiri[G]t has been rei[Ab]n st[G]ated from the
Corporate World's modern- [Ab]day slavery.
I've been [G]emancipated. Free at last!
[C]Free at last! Fuck a drug tes[C]t,
[Ab]I'm fitt[D]in' to roll some[Ab] grass[D]. Love, peace,
[G]and Afro grease, Fro- [Ab]ever! Buccooocc!
A- E- I- [G]O- you,

[Verse 2]
and [C]sometimes W. 'cause I'm [G]high,
[Ab]'cau[G]se I'm high,[D] 'cause I'm high.
