I woke up and the world was spinning Down was up and up was down All the people they laughed and pointed Like I had my clothes on inside out Nobody would answer me When I asked them where I was 'Til a man who looked something like me Said to me, "now listen, son" "This is the new America" "This is the new America" On our streets its hard to find peace We're all addicted to the latest craze An epic tale of fear and violence A documentary called pain Balanced scales bring no delight Where right is wrong and wrong is right If you stay here don't you get in the way Cause If you don't like progress you can't stay! "This is the new America" "This is the new America" I'm falling I'm calling for God while I'm wandering in this new America I see barriers, chaos-carriers Agents of darkness trying to bury her In a bed of lies, may be me too It's tough out here and I'm trying to get through The harsh pain and rain The concrete that's stained With blood from the storm that came after Cain Which is what we use to try and get by Walking with a limp even though we try To stop bias, we riot, be quiet You all cannot deny it We want to be flawless but we're lawless, heartless, filled with darkness Hanging by a broken harness Slowly turning impious If wrong is right tell me what am I supposed to do Stick to the glue that I know is true Or believe what I cannot construe Maybe lace up my shoe Walk down a dark path I never knew Walk into the sea, trying to find me And all the waves that I thought were blue I've been locked up and chained down and trapped I've been set free and I cannot go back Because my old ways are hopeless Alone I lack focus No control, no locus He took the chains and broke this The hurt on my shoulder the size of a boulder That mustard seed faith it grew as I got older I see through your lies, all you care about is views Everybody's dying for their agenda They'll choose So they can create division, multiply their vision While being remote they control the television I will not give in, bow down, I know it may seem odd I pray for a new America A kingdom under God!
