alec benjamin – america lyrics
[verse 1]
you’ve been hanging your conscious on the fence
’cause you can’t hold it
an empty promise laid to rest
a life is stolen
and there will be no consequence
for what you’ve broken
don’t you know, what your father said?
[pre-chorus]
we are the only, we are the brave
we are america, but we are to blame
[chorus]
stand up, stand up, can you hear me now?
all i, all i really want now is
your voice, your voice screaming out loud, saying:
“we can make it, oh, we can make it”
fist up, fist up, don’t put your hands down
all i, all i really want now is
your voice, your voice screaming out loud, saying:
“we can make it, oh, we can make it”
[verse 2]
we’ve been biting our tongues for far too long
and they know it
they told us that hope would carry on
they really had us going
there will be no consequence
for your sinful hypnosis
don’t you know, what your father said?
[pre-chorus]
we are the only, we are the brave
we are america, but we are to blame
[chorus]
stand up, stand up, can you hear me now?
all i, all i really want now is
your voice, your voice screaming out loud, saying:
“we can make it, oh, we can make it”
fist up, fist up, don’t put your hands down
all i, all i really want now is
your voice, your voice screaming out loud, saying:
“we can make it, oh, we can make it”
[outro]
i drew a line out in the sand
and then i gave it up
i watched it turn to dust
america
another year has gone again
i draw another one
and this time i won’t run
america
