Only in America Lyrics

Yeah
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Yeah

America, the beautiful
I′d like to take a look at you
It's hard to see past the stars from beyond the bars
Know they′d love to come and book at you

We barely can read
Plus speech not necessarily free
Black folks always embarrassin' me
With that face down, ass up, hands on your knee

We just wanna have a good time
All that we been through
I remember being nine on 10th Street in Pine when I lost my mentor
And growin' up was hard
Thank God I found instrumentals
But I miss when things were still simple

God bless the USA
God bless the USA
God bless the USA
God bless the USA, hey

You can live by the gun, die by the gun (only in America)
You can lie, you can steal, house on a hill (only in America)
You can be anything, live out dreams (only in America)
Only in America

This world known to break down angels
So long since I had my halo
Hellbent on tryna make life make sense
When I know I′m unstable
I know Cupid don′t miss but
I know God made mistakes too
Still in search of a breakthrough
I been hurt since last April

Hopefully I'm better by the summertime
Sun′s out, guns out, I'm cleansin′ mine
Been through way too much to summarize
Too much in my hands to let it go
It's gon′ be okay one day

You never know
But fate

God bless the USA
God bless the USA
God bless the USA
God bless the USA, hey

You can live by the gun, die by the gun (only in America)
You can lie, you can steal, house on a hill (only in America)
You can be anything, live out dreams (only in America)
Only in America

It goes
Fireworks on Friday night
Have you standin' by my side
Feel like the Fourth of July
Perfect slice of apple pie
Got me feelin' warm inside
Like the Fourth of July

Let′s go
Shootin′ stars, scars like stripes
Red, white, and blue, police lights
Big house, picket fence
Just don't be late, don′t get rent
Land of the free, home of the brave
Home of the natives, home of the slaves
Trust me when you hear me say
God gon' bless the USA

Only in the USA
God bless the USA
Stole me and they brought me to the USA
Thank you, I guess

God bless the USA
God bless the USA
God bless the USA
God bless the USA, hey

You can live by the gun, die by the gun (only in America)
You can lie, you can steal, house on a hill (only in America)
You can be anything, live out dreams (only in America)
Only in America

Only in America
Only in America
Only in America
Only in America

God bless the USA
God bless the USA
God bless the USA
God bless the USA
God bless the USA
God bless the USA
God bless the USA
God bless the USA, hey
