Lyrics
In My America
My America's
The home of the brave
We hate all wars
Don't need no parades
We only fight
When there's no other way
Only use our might
To make a better day
CHORUS
In my America
Everyone counts
Hold out a hand to ya
No one kept down
We take care of our own
Respect yours/all others
This earth's our home
We're sisters and brothers
Well my America
Is also yours
She belongs to all of us
And us to her
Gotta do her right
The Lady of Liberty
Shine her light
For all humanity
CHORUS x
