America

[Sample] - Rufus Wainwright 'Going To A Town' I'm so tired of you America I may just never see you again or might as well You took advantage of a world that loved you well I'm going to a town that has already been burned down I'm so tired of you, America [Verse One] I feel like packing my bags My allegiance to American flags Went away the Navy passed over my dad And when that judge said "Young man, this is serious charge I suggest you do the military thing." I was gone Six years to a Corp that sent a boy into war And the more I studied up I couldn't do it no more So can't nobody tell me shit about my politics I can bet that most you Tea Baggers never been through what I did I lived through Kosovo and out in Yemin we kick Hella doors in civilian villages while in prison my boys will keep going Neighborhood kept rolling Got news of more pee wees I knew Getting smoked And I spoke of being in it To defend my country But my country, kept taking all my homeboys from me So... [Hook] I may just never see you again or might as well You took advantage of a world that loved you well I'm going to a town that has already been burned down I'm so tired of you, America I got a life to live [Verse Two] Now where was I, oh yeah I would come home hearing all of this news 'Nother brother from high school having his body viewed And slowly I knew no matter how many men I salute I can't even pay respect to all the people in my hood No matter how many I shoot for God and country The people who done raised me, remain hungry Money money for school and for moving combat units Took precedence over any college unit I'm foolish to think That being a killer for good ol' Uncle Sam Would translate to a pig treating me like man But nah Here I am, getting treated the same "License and registration, what gang you claim?" I claim the all powerful, U.S.A And we can shoot if they fit a certain frame all the same The day came Trying to get me to reenlist Throwing money and shit Man fuck that shit [Hook] I may just never see you again or might as well You took advantage of a world that loved you well I'm going to a town that has already been burned down I'm so tired of you, America I've got a life to live Never really seem to want to tell the truth {x2} I'm so tired of you, America [Verse Three] So what to do now? Fans hit me up on my Facebook Talking 'bout they finna join cause they options look Slim But what I'm suppose to tell them? If I ain't join the service, what my life would've been Would I have been inside that car that took those bullets where Ren was? Would I have been at the pool hall when they shot that shit up? Cause all I did was replace the gang with a bigger gang Junior year of high school, military recruiters came But I ain't never seen a single college adviser Never knew that grants and scholarships were provided Never knew that I could've applied For a life that didn't provide rifles to take another man life But I did it Parts of me do regret it America, gotta go You can keep the pension {radio static} "America, fuck yeah" {radio static} {Spanish song} [Verse] Pontiac sent to American ears Money packed in the America fears So money tapped in the American Airs Got the news screaming, "Terrorists is everywhere" And it's apparent Various legislation is making it impossible to level off the nations Basic dilemmas So why let us, outta five bellas Right into your prison Got it Let me cut the Philippine accent Shorts and a t-shirt, Philippine fashion Bottom of the education system, list 'em From the very bottom is the children Living in the 808 and the 504 Poor, so they signing up for war Tour in the Afghan all they understand Face down, let me see your hands Sooo Me don't speak Americano [?] Money get funneled right back Tax Cigarette packs Gas Ahh [Outro] Ayo.
