Chicago - America Lyrics

America is free!
America!
America is you and me!

The dream was fading before our eyes
Take some time to revive it!
We the people must start right now
Don't expect our leaders to show us how!
They don't have a clue what to do
If they knew how to stop this lie
We'd have seen some signs by now
To turn back the time.

Here in America
America is free
America
America is you and me!

We can't keep having you make our rules
When you treat us common folk like fools
It's time to stand up for our rights
Put congress in our political sights.
Make them pass laws that help us all
The Founding Fathers echo will be heard in the hall
By the people for the people
Everyone's equal!

Cause this is America
America is free
America
America is you and me!

The Declaration tells us we're all free and equal
No religion, no color, just people!
No one better, no one worse
Everyone come first!
Time to unite as a nation
Go all in with no hesitation
Let's not shy away from what's right
Let's not shy away from the fight
If we work together at a steady pace
We will make the land we love
A better place!

A better America
America is free!
America
Where everyone's free!
America
America is free!
America
America is you and me!
You and me, you and me, you!
You and me!
