My Country |
We feel that racism and sexism and class seperation |
That these are desecrations |
And we feel that the american flag does not represent |
Integrity, honor, justice or truth |
My country 'tis of thee |
Sweet land of poverty |
For thee I weep |
Land where my mother cried |
Land where my father died |
Sweet land of genocide |
Pride of my heart |
My country 'tis of thee |
Sweet land of industry |
We’ll break your back |
Clean out your minerals |
Fill you with chemicals |
We kill for what is profitable |
Oh concrete world |
Our climate’s suffering |
All nature feels the sting |
Poisoned progress |
All of these mouths to feed |
All of this land to seed |
From sea to shining sea |
Gold underground |
Our people left to die |
Battlefield country-side |
Paved-over graves |
Suburban privileges make desolate villages |
Broken treaties, Broken promises |
Conquer, repeat |
All warriors represent |
Remind those who forget |
The time is now |
To walk in humble pride |
Prepare and fortify |
Resist comforts of compromise |
Pray for guidance |
Pray for guidance |
Pray for guidance |
