let freedom bleed

By kazmir

i am an american insane
i am an american in shame
now it's america to blame
since your america has never been the same
since you bathed in sacred oil
spilled fresh blood on virgin soil
keep bullying, provoke the attack
soon you'll wish to take it back

i don't want your american dreams
i want to make your america scream
take a blade to the tainted flag
and let freedom bleed

i am an american insane
i am an american in shame
now it's america to blame
your america will never be the same
now i'm here to set them free
the captives driven to apathy
keep waving on your blackened flag
and march into the body bags

i don't want your american dreams
i want to make your america scream
take a blade to the tainted flag
and let freedom bleed

let freedom bleed

oh pitiful forsaken ties
of wealthy old white men
broken hopes, patriotic lies
will doom you to your end
gods have cursed such egos past
this modern rome will too collapse
it makes me sick to watch it fall
trapped inside, forced to crawl
the roof ablaze, foundation cracked
the time is soon, your glory's passed
decay is seeping through the walls
you think you're gods, we hate you all
i'll laugh and cry through tortured screams
my battle cry, let freedom bleed
