I can see the turmoil in my people's streets
on this immoral plain of stone sorrow greets...
From far away battlefields to local towns
surges of Independence fills and drowns...
Oh say can you see
in the darknes of lies...
Independence to you means parties and plans
Independence to me means blood and death...
In my center
My core of my being shines a light...
Forgive me, for I have betrayed you! For I have...
We fought hard
we fought long...
America, 'America, Glad to meet you...
I'm struggling and straining for you
I'm facing the dragon because of you...
Crouching in the long lost leaves
thousands of warriors...
We say the pledge every day in school,
but for what reason...
The calm
The wait...
