Welcome home to the ghettos where it's all the same damn way as you left them when you were taken away Hope is always shy But now you're home so have a drink Day by day and bottle by bottle There are children at the border Ripped away from their mothers While you sit here and you wonder how you gonna spend your dollar They don't steal They don't rape They don't even know the day They just want to be safe Those our sisters and our mothers So don't you fuckin' touch them There is beauty in a fire but would you bathe in the flames They don't need no drunk brother To put their hands upon them Back on down, shut your mouth, then go get up on your way Livin' in America Livin' in America Livin' in America Livin' in America Call the police on a black man Standing there just doin' nothin' But you cannot be too safe because he is different from me Squeeze the trigger Pass the blame But don't you worry you'll be safe and get away You got the captain of the ship Drunk on power, telling stories Tweeting like a little birdie but he's sorely out of key But we're young So let's party, talk about it in the morning When we've had just a little more time to drink Livin' in America Livin' in America Livin' in America Livin' in America
