American Soul |
Blessed are the bullies |
For one day they will have to stand up |
To themselves |
Blessed are the liars |
For the truth can be awkward |
It's not a place |
This country is to me a sound |
Of drum and bass |
You close your eyes to look around |
Look around |
Look around |
Look around |
It's a sound |
Look around |
Look around |
It's a sound |
It's not a place |
This country is to me a thought |
That offers grace |
For every welcome that is sought |
You are rock and roll |
You and I are rock and roll |
You are rock and roll |
Came here looking for American Soul |
It's not a place |
This is a dream the whole world owns |
The pilgrim's face |
It had your heart to call her home |
You are rock and roll |
You and I are rock and roll |
You are rock and roll |
Came here looking for American Soul |
American |
American |
Put your hands in the air |
Hold on the sky |
Could be too late |
But we still gotta try |
There's a moment in our life where a soul can die |
And the person in a country when you believe the lie |
The lie |
There's a promise in the heart of every good dream |
It's a call to action, not to fantasy |
The end of a dream, the start of what's real |
Let it be unity |
Let it be community |
For refugees like you and me |
A country to receive us |
Will you be our sanctuary |
Refu-jesus |
You are rock and roll |
You and I are rock and roll |
You are rock and roll |
Came here looking for American Soul |
You are rock and roll |
You and I are rock and roll |
You are rock and roll |
Came here looking for American Soul |
American Soul |
American Soul |
