The "American" Dream


Jose had a dream that he would be  an educated man

Jose had a dream that he would live better than his parents 

Jose had a dream that he would give back to his parents 

Jose had a dream that he would live in America and live well

Jose wanted the american dream

 

Jose became an educated man in his hometown 

Jose lived with his parents just to get by 

Jose couldn't manage to give back to give back his parents

Jose left to America with his wife and son, but struggles to survive

The american dream is a DREAM... a dream that jose won't reach only hope to.
