Lyrics

Look what we've become We're busy looking out for number one I can't believe this what you had planned When we were growing up A nation of divided sons Taught to fear the ones we loved Now we're running 'round with no common ground between us Look what we've become There's blood in the streets on a Friday night You can hear the wails of old glory cry As sound of bullets go flying by Pointed straight at the heart of some young kid Risking his life to stand up for what he believes in But ain't that what real passion is I miss the years when we stood side by side Marching together under moonlit sky Not for beliefs built on lies But for what we knew was right We lifted up those who'd fallen before us We worked through the prelude to sing through the chorus hand in hand What happened to our land? Aristocrats in headlines They pull the wool over our eyes But they don't know a thing about you and I Homeless and poverty Black kids dying in the streets Was this all part of your American dream? Was it? Look what we've become We're busy looking out for number one I can't believe this what you had planned When we were growing up A nation of divided sons Taught to fear the ones we loved Now we're running 'round with no common ground between us Look what we've become
