[Verse 1] What happened to the way it's supposed to be? Did it go up in flames like gasoline on fire? The fourth of July Like torn out pages from a worn out book Faces in the mirror, we found we just couldn't look In the eye This land is yours, we sang out loud With hand-me-down faith that we'll figure it out But it never lasts long 'Cause the words get stuck on the tip of my tongue Every time I sing that old Guthrie song It just sounds wrong
[Chorus] What's it gonna take To finally break these walls In between? What's gotta give To finally live the American dream? Tell me, what's it gonna take?
[Verse 2] Voices of the people that ain't never heard Rise from a picture worth a thousand words That never rhyme They might just be a redemption song That falls into time when we try and right the wrong And right now's the time
[Chorus] What's it gonna take To finally break these walls In between? What's gotta give To finally live the American dream? Tell me, what's it gonna take To heal this pain, one by one Undo these chains? What's it gonna take Each and every day To look inside Find a better way?
[Chorus] What's it gonna take To finally break these walls In between? What's gotta give To finally live the American dream? Tell me, what's it gonna take?Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
