Look at us now, the Star Spangled people
We judge on race or religion;
Deep inside we're all equal

It doesn't matter how much money we can make a month
If we're sick, we should be able to afford to buy prescription drugs.

I mean, seriously, what are we turning to?
War?
Bloodshed and Chaos
Yea, that will get us far.

What happened to morals?
And how about peace?
Or society's collapsing
When will our foolish acts cease
To be?

Hate crimes! Racism! Anti-Gay Rights!
Sounds to me like our nations in plight.

I mean, people are working themselves sick each day.
Trying their hardest to get into college but there's bills they gotta pay.

And what about their kids, do they deserve this too?
A plate of rice for dinner, or maybe plain stew?

Its not fair! We're all human!
We deserve to feel joy!
But the rich people can our opinion
And treat us like,
Broken toys.

This is my voice, listen, hear it roar.
America's gonna have to try harder if its gonna soar

I'm trying to; Get us to change
Stuck in our old corrupted ways
How can my; Different soul be wrong and strange?
Walking through this hateful maze.

I don't; Understand why we all judge
Our hearts are the same and beat as one
Stop; turning lives into mud
Why can't we all see the sun?

OK look, all I'm saying is that we shouldn't fight
Especially, when we know that it isn't right.

Go ahead, stand tall, stand on your feet.
You think I don't see that glare when our eyes meet?

Look me, right in the face and me its fair
To gun a person down for the god that they send their prayers?

And, is it really, actually okay?
To just, beat a man because he's gay?

Or maybe, shoot a man for the color of his skin?
What did he do to you? When did he sin?

Want me to be honest?
The US is going down the drain.
So come on America
Start using your brain.

So I'm trying to; Get us to change
Stuck in our old corrupted ways
How can my; Different soul be wrong and strange?
Walking through this hateful maze.

I don't; Understand why we all judge
Our hearts are the same and beat as one
Stop; turning lives into mud
Why can't we all see the sun?
Ooh.
Why can't we all see the sun?
