Verse:
EmD
America is goinʼ woke, the streets are full of fire and smoke

This ainʼt the way I thought it would be
EmD
The White House full of evil folks, Americans ainʼt free no more
GCEm
They donʼt respect folks like you and me (oh-oh-oh-oh)
EmD
The way weʼre treated ainʼt been fair, fake news on every TV
GC
Four years weʼve been in this nightmare while they killed American dreams

We canʼt afford our lives here, ran food and gasoline
GC
These colors donʼt run, and I only want it once, buddy, donʼt tread on me
Pre-chorus:
EmD
I wonʼt forget the ones who died for our freedom

And I ainʼt gonna hand it back (no, no, no)

If liberty and justice ainʼt enough to believe
GC
And then get outta here and donʼt look back (go, go, go)
Chorus:
EmD
We love our home and if you donʼt pack your bags, youʼre free to go
GC
Donʼt let the big door hit you with a good Lordʼs playa, wave goodbye to Joe

We love our land, if you ainʼt fans, buddy will help you pack your bags
GC
Donʼt let the big door hit you with a good Lordʼs playa, burn someone elseʼs flag
Verse:

You got somethinʼ to say, well Iʼm right here, thank us for the freedom of speech
