Текст песни: Waiting for America + перевод

Hard to call myself «American,» knowing what I know

One hand soaked in blood, while the other offers hope

History weighs down on me, up close you can see the lies

One long hidden massacre, one big organized crime

I’ve given up on any miracles

Now I’m just waiting for America

They say this country’s revolution’s done

Well I’m still waiting for America

Waiting for reality to live up to the myth

Of, By and For the People, released from slavery’s grip

Where privilege has no power, where the stifled can breath free

I still believe in the idea, though it’s never been achieved

Bridge

This country breaks my heart each day

But somehow I still believe

For all the contradicitons of our past

There’s something more we could be

I’M STILL WAITING FOR AMERICA!!!
