Thievery Corporation ft. Notch - Amerimacka Lyrics

Miss Liberty turn in a Jezebel
All the dreams you go sell, turn in a hell
Her bed of roses are filled with thorns
Her righteous robes are tattered and torn

If she had only stood for love, that would have been enough
She wouldn't have to hide in her shame
If she had only stood for love, that would have been enough
But now we all burn in her flames

Amerimacka, oh what a beautiful life
Amerimacka, is like licking honey off of a knife
Amerimacka, oh what a beautiful sight
Amerimacka, oh what a beautiful light

The land of the free built on slavery, whoa, yeah
Our consciousness in captivity
The promised land is the lion's den
Your culture of greed has got to end

Now we're laying in the mud, looking up above
Tear water just a drop from the sky
They try to keep us in the mud, separating us from love
But me not gon let them conquer the I

Amerimacka, oh what a beautiful life
Amerimacka, is like licking honey off a knife
Amerimacka, oh what a beautiful sight
Amerimacka, oh what a beautiful light

Say Amerimacka, gonna miss Amerimacka-macka
Amerimacka, we've seen the sound of choppa, choppa
Amerimacka, this one is like a tanka, tanka
Say Amerimacka, me know dem are sing ah
Say Amerimacka, me know dem are the attacker
Me see the world of them and man that world is shattered, shattered
Oh whoa
Say Amerimacka, me see the dreams are shattered
Me look up on the sky and man me see a little altar, altar, yeah, yeah, whoa
