American Pride

Everyone's a shooting star
We all will make it to the end
The only new beginning is
The one I spend with all my friends
The trees, the water, mighty sun
The sea, the battle, poison field
All become the reason
For the shadow I know is real
Growing up is tough as nails
I hope a giant gust of wind
Rushes up against the sails
And pulls us all in by our chin
Whichever way I look at it
Beautiful, tragic
Part of it's on purpose?
But it's usually an accident
Funeral to first breath
Destiny's choice
Hardly enough
But enough to make sense of it boy
One foot in and one foot out
Imma shake it till I see the sharks and then I will be out
But there's no kidding, life's hard
Especially when you go swimming with no lifeguard
Tomorrow Imma go get it, today I'm gonna sit
Till I get in my car and drive myself sick
Imma go, go, fix it up
Imma go go go Imma fix it up [2x]
Imma giddy giddyup, Imma fix it up
Imma go go-getter, Imma fix it up
Imma giddy giddyup, Imma fix it up
Imma, Imma
Compare myself to my father and what is it I find?
I find that he works hard and most of the time, so do I
He can build a house and I can build a song that
Under one roof we can sing with my mom, bet
Watch a young girl eat a big piece of pork
Whether she hasn't ate for days or just the night before
It truly doesn't matter. It makes me want to puke
Like a fast food platter with the ten o'clock news
These people lost. These people won
This country gave that country a gun
I'm sorry to say it, I have to admit
I wish I lived in Europe where no one gets sick
Maybe it's a myth, so forgive me if it is
But from what I heard it's a great place to raise your kids
Then I should leave, right? I know, Don't worry, I will
As soon as we fight cold snow flurries and chills
Up a spineless fix the machine, blinded, trying to swim up this stream
Remind us that we're dying trying to live the dream
The score is zero/ zero, no side's the winning team
And I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm me
Where the magazines and TV screens
Tell me who to be
And I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm safe
From Oxycontin, Adderall
Klonopin, ecstasy and crank
And I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free
Where most of my time is spent trying to find
The best time for me to leave
