American Anthem addresses the decay of the American dream. The song centers around Joe, an Everyman who struggles with social pressure, financial burden, and mental health issues. Joe reflects the struggling reality faced by most who endure the exhausting routine of the rat race. Sadly for Joe and others, they never realize they can just leave the demands of this life & embrace a simple existence.
