You're working day and night just steady struggling 
You think that you can make it by yourself 
You feel like giving up 
You feel like giving in 
But you're determined to get out of this hell 
You're not the only one who's ever had it hard 
Somebody somewhere's feeling all your pain 
Think of the lucky ones the ones who started small 
They didn't win till they decided to play 
Everybody wants to make it 
No one wants to try now if you think that you can take it 
Let me hear your battle cry 
I want it I need it 
So give it to me
I want a piece of the American dream
I want it I need it 
So give it to me little piece of the American dream 
You have to sacrifice 
You gotta to take a chance cause that's the only way you'll ever win 
Go on and roll the dice 
Forget the circumstance 
You're either selling out or chasing in 
Everybody wants to make it 
No one ever wants to try now if you think that you can take it 
Let me hear your battle cry 
I want it I need it
So give it to me 
I want a piece of the american dream 
I want it I need it
So give it to me a little piece of the American dream
Hold on to your own ambition
Keep it till the day you die 
All you need is inspiration
Never kiss a day goodbye
I want it I need it so give it to me 
I want a piece of the American dream 
I want it I need it so give it to me little piece of the American dream 
I want it I need it so give it to me 
I said I want it I need it 
So give it to me 
I said I want it I need it 
So give it to me I want a piece of the American dream
