| Everything that made you great only made you bad
|
| Made the people hate all the good they had
|
| I know that you had big dreams, that you had big plans
|
| But abuse won't make
|
| Won't make a free land
|
| You got a white picket fence and your dad's got a gun
|
| And when you see the police, there's no reason to run
|
| You got a job and a car and a good dental plan
|
| You got health insurance, pocket money, damn
|
| America
|
| America, America
|
| You can't bury the truth
|
| It's time to pay your dues
|
| America
|
| This is a new America
|
| Stars are shining for you
|
| Sparkling red and blue
|
| Fuckеd with the food chain
|
| Fucked with the farming, too
|
| And now our food don't tastе
|
| Like it's meant to do
|
| They've got blood on their hands
|
| 'Cause they stole all the land
|
| And all the lives they erased made them feel like a man
|
| Who gave you jazz, hip hop, rock 'n' roll, and the blues?
|
| No matter what, history's catching up on you
|
| America
|
| America, America
|
| You can't bury the truth
|
| It's time to pay your dues
|
| America
|
| This is a new America
|
| Stars are shining for you |
| Sparkling red and blue
|
| White teeth, dark smile
|
| You've been in pain for a while
|
| You can't hide your secrets, we can see
|
| America
|
| America, America
|
| You can't bury the truth
|
| It's time to pay your dues
|
| Stars are shining for you
|
| 'Cause freedom's coming soon (Oh)
|
| America
|
| This is a new America
|
| Stars are shining for you (Oh)
|
| Sparkling red and blue (Oh) |
