America The Once Beautiful

Song Lyrics

Verse 1

America 

The once beautiful

Then the white man came

Colonized
Through mass
Genocide 

Did what for them
Was right

Never caring
About who was here already
Was once mesmerizing
Now nothing short
Of bloodyful
As we separate families
By the handful
United we are not

As divided
This madness will
Become our downfall

Chorus
Persecuted

Became the persecutors
Those who once were
Running now has
Everyone else doing the same
We were supposed to be

The land of the free
The land for everybody
What the fuck happened
To you and me

Verse 2

Colonizers
Foreign invaders
Whatever you want

To call them

Trying to deport everyone
Including somehow

The natives there

Long before 

They ever were

The slave bringers
Who even now
Can't stand another color
On anybody
Forgetting who

Actually built
Their country
On their very backs
With never so
Much as a thanks

Chorus
