Bound For Glory - America, America lyrics

AMERICA, AMERICA How much more time before my country dies How many more tears must my children cry How much more slander must my people take The survival of our race is at stake Crooked politicians and their media lies A race of dignity is what they despise They're raping our nation that was proud and free Now like vultures they are coming for me (chorus) America, America, what has become A once proud nation is turning into a slum America, America, can you tell me why Corruption keeps on growing while my people die I was left on the cross to die They crucified my body but they couldn't steal my mind A menace to society is what I was called But they're scared of a man with a heart and soul They said my actions would seal my fate That's when my love came and turned to hate No more fools can make me obey I've smashed the shackles, now I'm breaking away (chorus) breakdown (chorus)
