I am American
My empty pockets grow deeper
I'll never get ahead
Always a day late
Always a dollar short
They'll take you under a broken wing
Become dependent on a government
That can't depend on itself
Can you envision the collision?
They'll destroy our minds
But not our instincts
Society breaks down
With every scientific breakthrough
Solidating power
By legalizing insanity
Fuck your desire for peace
They rape and pillage in your name
You're against abortion
But you aborted your dreams
Privatized banks
Implementing a dictatorship
Antipatriots extend the patriot act
And constitutionalists are put on a watchlist
I am American
My empty pockets grow deeper
I'll never get ahead
Always a day late
Always a dollar short
They'll take you under a broken wing
Destined to fail
Since 1776
A power tripping
Indecisive nation
Don't trade
Freedoms for security
They'll destroy our minds
But not our instincts
They'll destroy our minds
But not our instincts
Solidating power
By legalizing insanity
Fuck your desire for peace
They rape and pillage in your name
