In America Songtext
von Sananda Maitreya

There′s no way
Out and no way in

Where is the land
I used to
Understand
In America?
If you protest
They'll pay someone
To make a mess
In America
But ask permission
And you′ll just
Raise suspicion
In America
And if you run
They'll chase you
With a gun
In America


We live in such a bad city
There's no place for us (there′s no place for us)
We live in a town without pity
There′s no room for love (there's no room for love)
We live where everything′s pretty
In America (in America)
In America

If you are white
They'll always try
To make it right
In America
If you are black
You′ll always have
To watch your back
In America
In your face
But never in
Your place boy
In America
If you're a Jew
They′ll always put
The blame on you
In America


We live in such a bad city
There's no place for us (there's no place for us)
We live in a town without pity
There′s no room for love (there′s no room for love)
We live where everything's pretty
In America (in America)
In America

If Jesus comes
He′ll recognize
His people there
In America
They'll be the ones
Looking for him
Everywhere
In America
There′s now way
In and no way out
In america
And if you run
They'll chase
And shoot you
With a gun
In America

We live in such a bad city
There′s no place for us (there's no place for us)
We live in a town without pity
There's no room for love (there′s no room for love)
We live where everything′s pretty
In America (in America)

We live in such a bad city
There's no place for us (there′s no place for us)
We live in a town without pity
There's no room for love (there′s no room for love)
We live where everything's pretty
In america (in America)
In America

There′s no way
Out and no way in
In America
In America
