fair enough, American dream as a direct term was abandoned since NFR era as i mentioned, but tbh its still briefly mentioned here and there in her music afterwards,or at least - hinted. Its no longer just "American Dream", its some specific shit that attached to it. Lana used to say things like "live on the dark side of the American dream" - American dream in her music then was only an abstract / unshaped idea, or at least - very simple: like u get to LA, get rich, get famous, parties, glamorous, hollywood, crimescenes, movie stars, sex, drugs, etc. and u discovered the dark side of them all. But after NFR, she no longer just mentions the term "American dream" generally,she points put whats attached to it, i.e: the culture (she uses this word a lot post-NFR), the media & whats she experienced after years of being a Hollywood singer and tasted her stardom. She no longer craves for it, she even wanted to leave it and go incognito at some point. In BB,she even prayed for "America", probably because the "culture" has failed her, as well as that "American dream" has failed her. So imo, there's still that idea of American dream in her music, but it's changed its form,and the way she treats it, represents it different now.

i think we already have some venting / conversation threads abt random stuff we're struggling together, but im not the kind of person who tells a lot. Sure, i want to be heard, but im so afraid that people would use my mental issues & life problems to against me and make it out like its my fault, i experienced being misunderstood a lot in the past with my weakness being used as weapons against me. Which is one of the reason why i feel connected to Lana's music on so many levels, theres a lot of artists i loved before i discovered Lana but im mostly too growned out to listen to them that frequently like i used to, but Lana remains stable in my list since my pre-teen phase.

A.K.A: She wanted the American dream (I want to be a whole world's girl gramma) BTD: She took a walk on the wildside of the American Dream PD: She saw the dark side of the American Dream (In the land of Gods & Monsters i was an angel living in the garden of evil) UV: She experienced the violence of the American Dream HM: She contemplated as her American Dream dying L4L: She wanted to wake up from the American Dream NFR!: She said fuck the American Dream COCC: She's just a wanderlust, she wandered throughout the America in real life 👉 the American Dream is no longer an idea BB: "I'll pray for ya, you need a Miracle - America" I wonder how the American Dream is going to be represented in this era, and we got some first taste with American Whore tho...

the way u just spill my mind like this. I relate to this sentiment on so many levels, 2022 until now was so tiring & drained tf out of my energy. I dont even feel inspired in life or in my job & my school work, everythings just so bland and my mind feel trapped, hence my physical state is also weakened and sluggish. My body feels like its in a drought. Yep, we need this album rn Im still trying to fight with my depression everyday & i need this album in my life & i dont even need drugs, medication or therapy.
