Home of the Brave Songtext
von Adam Calhoun

Wish someone would help me, somebody tell me
What′s goin' on with the world today?
We lost our way, but won′t lose the fight
Just stand your ground and you'll be alright

Land of the free, home of the brave
Nowadays, everybody act all gay
Y'all don′t see this mess y′all made?
Act all weird and dress all strange

I guess I'm weird, ′cause I'm still straight?
You white, you racist, that′s okay
Black lives claim they still chained
Last I checked, I don't own no slaves

But I own what I say
Most of you don′t 'cause you don't wanna pay
The price you pay when you say it to my face
And all that ′cause I love the USA


And the flag we fly
I speak my mind, ′cause people died
They burn it down, you act surprised
I can't believe my damn eyes (damn eyes)

I never thought I′d live to see the day (the day)
The way people act this day (this day)
I'd rather die than live that way (that way)
What happened to the USA?

It′s time for change, give a damn what people say
I miss the old days, home of the brave
It's time for change, break the chains in the USA
I miss the old days, home of the brave

Wish someone would help me, somebody tell me (somebody tell me)
What′s goin' on with the world today?
We lost our way, but won't lose the fight
Just stand your ground and you′ll be alright

Gonna be alright (alright), gonna see the light (light)
First people fight (fight), then reunite
When day turns night (night), and wrong turns right (right)
I′ll always fight for them Stars and Stripes


Stars and Stripes on my sleeves, you burn them rest in peace
Better yet, rot in hell, much respect to those who fell
I live through them so I can tell, the story that we know so well
Live or die, my head held high, 'til it′s my time, farewell (farewell)

I never thought I'd live to see the day (the day)
The way people act this day (this day)
I′d rather die than live that way (that way)
What happened to the USA?

It's time for change, give a damn what people say
I miss the old days, home of the brave
It′s time for change, break the chains in the USA (in the USA)
I miss the old days, home of the brave (the brave)
