Great, America (2017)

There are tears rollin' down my front and back
 There's a mirror holdin' up a one-eyed Jack
 There's a hurricane swingin' at a lowly shack
 In 2017
 There's a compass lost on the open sea
 Another shooter in my community
 There's a steady stream of insanity
 In 2017
 There's a dog with the nuclear bomb in its mouth
 Hey, old white man, meet the brave new south
 Don't it make you wanna scream and shout?
 In 2017
 My TV is as busy as a canopy
 Pointing, you can get an eye and never have to stop and wait
 But your airplane's gonna be a little bit late
 In 2017
 My eyes and my ears and my senses are tired
 Everybody's scared, everybody's inspired
 The world is underwater, it's also on fire
 In 2017
 Great, America
 Come on, come on, come on
 We're bathin' in hysteria
 There is litter on your lawn
 If it's smokin' while we're sleepin'
 There'll be fire in the dawn
 So, come on, America
 Come on, come on, come on
 ♪
 You talk like this, but you live like that
 Says, "Go back home", on your welcome mat
 Did someone really say that the world is flat
 In 2017?
 There's constant unchecked brutality
 A brave man takes a stand by droppin' to a knee
 Try to understand you, try to understand me
 In 2017
 I'll try to understand you, try to understand me
