You can carve your name into a tree, that don't mean you own it, huh
Land of the free, everything is free when you steal it
No mountainside can conceal 500 years of American nightmares
Nothing could be worse than putting it where it hurts the most
I don't buy it for a second, you tried to instill pride, and this is who you chose
Slave owners and Indian killers in the shadows of the hills that are black
A white lie has gone too far, and now it's time to give it back
Taught in school like a thing of the past, but they never left
Listen to the sound of the drums over the mountains, you can hear 'em
Listen to the sound of the drums, you can hear 'em getting nearer
Primetime evening news covers the spectacular fireworks
Red, white and blue covers everything it can reach
And we get down on our knees every chance we get
To worship shameless faces in high places
