[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Well, I see, I feel, on my way
You close your eyes, scared to think what you might see
A world that spends more to kill than to cure
Living, writhing, diseased, so unpure
[Pre-Chorus]
It hardens me, the things I see
But I won't break, it gives me strength
[Chorus]
That's right!
Our suffering
Won't always be
We'll dominate
This nation on fire
[Verse 2]
The media, it blinds our eyes
A people, divided and force fed lies
Oh, the black and white societies corrode
Warring, hating, blind, a rage explodes
[Pre-Chorus]
So take my hand, across this land
I won't go down, stand my ground
[Chorus]
Yeah, that's right!
Our suffering
Won't always be
We'll dominate
This nation on fire!
[Bridge]
Go!
This nation's built on fighting war after war
And for my brothers, I will fight and stand for
'Cause I won't break, your truth is fake
If blood ran red, you'd leave me for dead
A nation on fire!
A nation on fire!
You tell me peace; well, I hear gunshots all night
The scars I have I've earned, 'cause I've had to fight
An endless pain, and it won't change
We just sat by and watched this world die
A nation on fire!
A nation on fire!
