American Man

[Verse 1]

Freedom, the naked power

Weakened by the ages

Raped but not forgotten

All its subtle secrets

Gods and liberations

Those that try to use it

Are those that try to sheath it

Wide awake

[Chorus]

Yes, I am the American man

Yes, I am the American man

Yes, I am the American man

Yes, I am the American man

[Verse 2]

Free man haunted by the music

Ghosts of generation

Beat the drums of freedom

Those that toiled and suffered

Now, those they try to smother

Wide awake

[Chorus]

Yes, I am the American man

Yes, I am the American man

Yes, I am the American man

Yes, I am the American man

[Bridge]

Where to begin?

Bred to win

Where do I go?

The soul worn off my skin

Say it's an excuse

I cut out the hole in my soul, I know is you

So are we ready

Ready to lose?

I know I feel, feel, feel

Inside the walls

Inside the walls

The iron walls protect the soles of my old boots

[Guitar Solo]

Oh-woah-oh

[Chrous]

Yes, I am the American man

Yes, I am the American man

Yes, I am the American man

Yes, I am the American man

Yes, I am the American man (Inside the walls)

Yes, I am the American man (Inside the walls)

Yes, I am the American man (Inside the walls)
