(Verse 1)
Used to wave the flag without fear
Now it’s taped to a wall with debt and tears
They said change was comin’, said trust the plan
Now the streets feel colder, cash slips through my hand
Factories gone, towns run dry
Words get twisted, truth gets denied
They talk in circles, smile for the screen
While the country cracks in between
(Pre Chorus)
They say it’s progress if you don’t ask why
Call it compassion while dreams pass by
(Chorus)
Democrats say they’re savin’ the nation
But I’m watchin’ it fall apart
Higher prices, broken borders
Paper promises, heavy hearts
They preach control, rewrite the story
Blame the past, ignore today
Call it justice, call it power
But it feels like America’s slippin’ away
(Verse 2)
Speech gets censored, lines get drawn
Say the wrong thing, you’re already gone
They choose what’s “right,” choose what’s “true”
If you don’t agree, they cancel you
Crime goes up, they look away
Hard work punished, bills don’t pay
They say trust us, just wait and see
But waiting’s all we’ve done for years now, see
(Pre Chorus)
They call it unity, but split us apart
Turn neighbors into enemies from the start
(Chorus)
Democrats say they’re savin’ the nation
But I’m watchin’ it fall apart
Higher prices, broken borders
Paper promises, heavy hearts
They preach control, rewrite the story
Blame the past, ignore today
Call it justice, call it power
But it feels like America’s slippin’ away
(Bridge)
This ain’t hate, this ain’t rage
It’s frustration written on every page
Love this land, that’s why I speak
When leaders grow loud but the people get weak
You can’t fix a house
By burning the frame
(Chorus)
Democrats say they’re savin’ the nation
But I’m watchin’ it fall apart
Higher prices, broken borders
Paper promises, heavy hearts
They preach control, rewrite the story
Blame the past, ignore today
Call it justice, call it power
But it feels like America’s slippin’ away
Democrats say they’re savin’ the nation
But I’m watchin’ it fall apart
Higher prices, broken borders
Paper promises, heavy hearts
They preach control, rewrite the story
Blame the past, ignore today
Call it justice, call it power
But it feels like America’s slippin’ away
Democrats say they’re savin’ the nation
But I’m watchin’ it fall apart
Higher prices, broken borders
Paper promises, heavy hearts
They preach control, rewrite the story
Blame the past, ignore today
Call it justice, call it power
But it feels like America’s slippin’ away
(Outro)
Ashes fall from a promise made
Still hopin’ America’s not too late
