janelle monáe - americans كلمات الأغنية

[intro]
hold on, don’t fight your war alone
halo around you, don’t have to face it on your own
we will win this fight, let all souls be brave
we’ll find a way to heaven, we’ll find a way

[verse 1]
war is old, so is s-x, let’s play god, you go next
hands go up, men go down, try my luck, stand my ground
die in church, live in jail say her name, twice in h-ll
uncle sam kissed a man, jim crow jesus rose again

[pre-chorus]
i like my woman in the kitchen
i teach my children superst-tions
i keep my two guns on my blue nightstand
a pretty young thang, she can wash my clothes
but she’ll never ever wear my pants

[chorus]
i pledge allegiance to the flag
learned the words from my mom and dad
cross my heart and i hope to die
with a big old piece of american pie
love me baby, love me for who i am
fallen angels singing, “clap your hands”
don’t try to take my country, i will defend my land
i’m not crazy, baby, naw, i’m american
i’m american, i’m american, i’m american

[verse 2]
seventy-nine cent to your dollar
all that bullsh-t from white-collars
you see my color before my vision
sometimes i wonder if you were blind
would it help you make a better decision?

[chorus]
i pledge allegiance to the flag
learned the words from my mom and dad
cross my heart and i hope to die
with a big old piece of american pie
just love me baby, love me for who i am
fallen angels singing, “clap your hands”
don’t try to take my country, i will defend my land
i’m not crazy, baby, naw, i’m american
i’m american, i’m american, i’m american

[spoken bridge]
let me help you in here
until women can get equal pay for equal work
this is not my america
until same-gender loving people can be who they are
this is not my america
until black people can come home from a police stop without being shot in the head
this is not my america
until poor whites can get a shot at being successful
this is not my america
i can’t hear n-body talkin’ to me

[chorus]
just love me baby, love me for who i am
fallen angels singing, “clap your hands”
don’t try to take my country, i will defend my land
i’m not crazy, baby, naw
i’m american (love me baby)
i’m american (love me for who i am)

[spoken outro]
until latinos and latinas don’t have to run from walls
this is not my america
but i tell you today that the devil is a liar
because it’s gon’ be my america before it’s all over
please sign your name on the dotted line
