Star Spangled

(album: New America - 2015)

I wanna be happy, I wanna free my mind
I'm so tired of owing money
To people all the damn time
And I don't know if I can see that
Star spangled banner wave
The night has fallen, the dust stays thick
As it sits on these iron chains, yeah

We built ourselves this tower
Watch it come crumbling down
We built ourselves this tower
Watch it come crumbling down
We built you up this tower
Why you settle it to the ground
We built you up this tower
And now we're gonna tear it down

I wanna be happy, I just wanna free my mind
I'm so tired of owing money
To people all the damn time
I just wanna take these chains off
And see this star spangled banner fly
Wanna be, wanna be, wanna be, wanna be
