America
What happened to you
Ruled by those who don't have a clue
America
What changed overnight
You can't be run by divine right
Your foundation crumbled
The freedoms gone away
Falling to pieces day after day
Our people take what isn't theirs to take
You're lazy, arrogent, among other things
So now we have to sit and watch our freedom never ring.
