For America
As if i really didn't understand That i was just another part of their plan I went off looking for the promise Believing in the motherland And from the comfort of a dreamer's bed And the safety of my own head I went on speaking of the future While other people fought and bled The kid i was when i first left home Was looking for his freedom and a life of his own But the freedom that he found wasn't quite as sweet When the truth was known I have prayed for america I was made for america It's in my blood and in my bones By the dawn's early light By all i know is right We're going to reap what we have sown
As if freedom was a question of might As if loyalty was black and white You hear people say it all the time- 'my country wrong or right' I want to know what that's got to do With what it takes to find out what's true With everyone from the president on down 更多更详尽歌词 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔镜歌词网 Trying to keep it from you
The thing i wonder about the dads and moms Who send their sons to the vietnams Will they really think their way of life Has been protected as the next war comes? I have prayed for america I was made for america Her shining dream plays in my mind By the rockets red glare A generation's blank stare We better wake her up this time
The kid i was when i first left home Was looking for his freedom and a life of his own But the freedom that he found wasn't quite as sweet When the truth was known I have prayed for america I was made for america I can't let go till she comes around Until the land of the free Is awake and can see And until her conscience has been found
