Barely American Lyrics by Cole Hedgecoth

Imagination

2016

[Intro]
[Verse One]
Uh, we're barely american
Fairly, we arrogant
I'm sick of the Claritin
Sin we inherited death- from the heroine
This is embarrassing
I never thought I would make this comparison
People are dying
United they stood on the promise
That one day our nation would try to combine
But divided we fall
And the higher we go
We got further to fall
Innocent murdered for being a color
And others don't know how to handle the number
And every summer it's somebody younger
I'm wondering, how do they comfort the mothers?
Churches are purchasing odious pickets
They're pickin' and choosin' in what they believe in
Explicit, the church is a prison
And all their beliefs are beliefs of a bigot, yeah
[Verse Two]
People are telling me stories of viscous events
And it's boring- there ain't nothing new
They comin' at me with a warrant
I'm under arrest 'cause I'm telling the truth
What will it take for the freedom to step into place
And we free all the slaves?
And the reason I'm here is so I'll make a change
And making a way so my people will not fall away
They thinking they know me
Stop talking and show you
You're saying you're something
But I'm watching closely
Seeing the lies that you're telling
The body you're selling
The people you're failing
The word that you're spreading
Irrelevance
All of the levels are relevant
And celibacy is just elegant
Arrogance is a delegate
But we're barely american
[Outro]
