(Didn't Know I Was) Unamerican

Ian Rhett
Lingua: Inglese




Didn't know I was Un-American
For choosing to give a damn
Or unpatriotic
For daring to take a stand
For what I believe in
Looks like freedom to me
Expressions of liberty
Wanting Our America to be
A responsible Hegemony

Didn’t know I was a communist
For wanting to share the wealth
It doesn’t take an economist
To measure the cost of health
And What I believe in
Looks Like Heaven to me
One human Family
Where everybody’s got enough to eat
And something warm to cover their feet

Didn’t know I’d be labeled a terrorist
For daring to speak my mind
It’s becoming more precarious
For failing to toe the line
And What I believe in
Sounds Like Freedom to me
Like the sons of liberty
In 1773
Dumping 45 tons of tea

Didn’t know I was in the minority
Of people who love the earth
I hope it becomes a priority
Before it gets any worse
And What I believe in
Looks like heaven to me
Where angels take the shape of the trees
Giving us clean air to breathe
From the rivers to the mountains and streams

Didn’t know I hated the country
For acknowledging the truth
This war is despicable profiteering
At the expense of our youth
And What I believe in
Looks like Heaven to me
With all of humanity
Living as community
In relative harmony

I know it’s just a song
But if the whole world sang along
How much longer would it be this way?
