1776 Was your conception Came to this place In hopes of new perspective New ideology Original 13 colonies All these years of practice Yet still broken our economy Far removed from God I see But still it's on the money Yo ain't funny In God we used trust Now we trusting in the dollar No longer backed by gold So the dollar losing power Want us to Pledge to the flag Material possession Blackball us if we black If we kneel due to aggression Laws against the immigrants America ain't filling this When it was them that truly built the country The political parties debate And fight against each other Seems nothings getting done Nothing new under the sun Last in healthcare And those student loans outrageous Can't find a job Even though you have the papers Living in a city Wage minimum is low Barely getting by So you get you a couple more Jobs jobs jobs You working all the time Barely see your family Succumbing to the gravity Social security You got to be kidding me Mass incarceration When the people need help I cannot fail to mention The unbalance in wealth Or is it in I don't really know Pharmaceuticals They bad they evil Pumping us with drugs When will it ever be enough The costs skyrocket How sad They ain't helping in the opioid crisis Indecisive The United been divided Every state doing their thang Been that way since the Big Bang What's freedom in one state Is death in the other Smoke weed here There the jail you'll go under Debt that we amass Beans compared to country Federal deficit It's like we derelicts The Corona showed our colors Businesses that did go under Must be busy building walls In that thinking there's no flaws Corruption in office All the lies that it's told us Was the moon landing faked America's never been great Wait Hmmm Is that a fair assessment Even with all the wrong Is living here a blessing Well some turn on the tap And still have brown water But we have time to hate Brown people at borders Racism It's Been embedded in the system This the way Is it Who will say it's different Go to one school Riding high on Mac computers Go to another Metal detectors deter the shooters I can talk this way Cuz there's freedom of speech Might face some repercussions And get murdered in the street O America What a beautiful place Might get shot in the streets Or get shot in your place Might get rich off of schemes Or extreme poverty Lampin in a mansion Or your stomachs rumbling Might be a lawyer or doctor Or because your skin type Could be seen as a problem Yo most is unbothered O America the beautiful Land of the free Except broke people And those who look like me
