lyrics
Opportunity
They say dreaming’s free
Put your money where your mouth is
It’s a masquerade
It’s a cheap charade
What to do about this?
It’s morning in America
What did you say?
You know we’re very proud of her
Who’s getting shot today?
All you children of freedom now left to your own despair
What do the powers care?
We’re mourning in America
Irrationality
Police brutality
Lest we ever let our guard down
Forced to take a side
As this house divides
Contempt is going ‘round
It’s morning in America
I can’t breathe
We used to be so proud of her
Where you gonna go if you leave?
While your children are living in fear of the siren song
Until we right that wrong
We’re mourning in America
Let the greedy who trample you down come to pay their rent
They shall all repent
One morning in America
And as it all begins to fall apart
What makes you think it was every so great from the start?
All you children of freedom now left to your own despair
What do the powers care?
We’re mourning in America
Let the greedy who trample you down come to pay their rent
They shall all repent
One morning in America
We’re mourning in America
America
We’re mourning in America
America
We’re mourning in America
America
We’re mourning in America
