Bilingual
Out of the corner
Of my own eye
I see a river
I see a blue sky
I was a weaklin'
I wasn't too bright
But I could fall fast
And I could get high
What are you waiting for?
You haven't jumped yet
You haven't earned the right
To be a man yet
I see it in your eyes
You're just a scared kid
You need to learn to fight
To be American
ย
I shot a gun once
Right at a beer can
I fucking missed it
I have such soft hands
I'm not a patriot
I'm not a Christian
I wouldn't sacrifice
My life for this land
What are you waiting for?
You haven't jumped yet
You haven't earned the right
To be a man yet
I see it in your eyes
You'rะต just a scared kid
You need to learn to fight
To be Amะตrican
