Thinkin' back on the place where I grew up It had a lot less pain It had a lot less hate It had a lot more love But that's not the way it was for everyone And I see that now And I think somehow We should find a better way In America We've been waitin' on a sunset that never came Our screens are feeding us lies The lies are feeding divides Our minds are goin' insane We're all just tryin' to believe in something meaningful But as it stands right now I'd say we failed the test What have we become America I don't know where we are But I know right where we've been We're out here searchin' for truth We're out here searchin' for sanity again And I know And I know That it's still worth fighting for And the winds of change Are bound to blow again Love is what we need America What have we done Where are we now Where do we go from here Oh America What have we become America
