paroles de chanson i see america (Live From Bonnaroo) - Joy Oladokun

Alright
So, as you know
The world looks a little different
Than it did last summer
Getting together
And
You know
The thing that I keep thinking about is that
There is just a generation forth people
Who are willing to be loving and compassionate
And to speak truth to power
And to fight against the systems that
Continue to cheat and oppress people
And, to push forward, for good
And I have such faith that
So many of you watching this
Are part of that group
Um, and so, I say
Keep up the good fight, Bannaroo
And this song
I see america
Is for you

I saw God out on the block today
He was darker than the preachers say
With a teardrop tattooed on his face
And dirt on his fingers

I heard angels when he laughed the way
That people do when they have known true pain
For his sins I don′t know who's to blame
What choice was he givin′?
In this world that we're livin'

When I see you
I see love
I see America
I feel your pain
I share your blood
I see America

Said your mother knows a different time
She let′s her tongue slip with a glass of wine
And says some things out loud that don′t feel right
And you always forgivе her
Don't you see the world is changing now?
The blood of thе fallen cries out from the ground
Violence and rumors in a southern town
Both start with a whisper
But so does the difference

When I see you
I see love
I see America
I feel your pain
I share your blood
I see America
When I see you
I see love
I see America
I feel your pain
I share your blood
I see America
When I see you
I see love
I see America
I feel your pain
I share your blood
I see America
