Paroles: Tracy Chapman. America.
You were lost and got lucky,
came upon the shore,
found you were conquering America,
Spoke of peace,
Waged a war,
while you were conquering America.
There was land to take, and people to kill
While you were conquering America.
You saved yourself, and did God's will,
While you were conquering America.
The ghost of Columbus haunts this world,
You're still conquering America.
The meek won't survive, inherit the earth,
Cause you're still conquering America
hmmmm
Found bodies to serve, submit and degrade,
while you were conquering America.
Made of soldiers and junkies, prisoners and slaves,
while you were conquering America.
America, America, America
Your hands are at my throat,
my back's against the wall,
cause you're still conquering America.
We are Sick, and tired, hungry and poor,
cause you're still conquering America.
America, America, America,
You bomb the very ground,
you feed your own babies,
you're still conquering America
Your sons and your daughters,
May never sing your praises,
while you were conquering America.
America, America, America
Unseal your eyes,
see the distant shore,
while you were conquering America,
Take your rockets to the moon,
Try to find a new world,
And you're still conquering America.
America, America, America
The ghost of Columbus, haunts this world,
You're still conquering America,
You're still conquering America,
You're still conquering America
came upon the shore,
found you were conquering America,
Spoke of peace,
Waged a war,
while you were conquering America.
There was land to take, and people to kill
While you were conquering America.
You saved yourself, and did God's will,
While you were conquering America.
The ghost of Columbus haunts this world,
You're still conquering America.
The meek won't survive, inherit the earth,
Cause you're still conquering America
hmmmm
Found bodies to serve, submit and degrade,
while you were conquering America.
Made of soldiers and junkies, prisoners and slaves,
while you were conquering America.
America, America, America
Your hands are at my throat,
my back's against the wall,
cause you're still conquering America.
We are Sick, and tired, hungry and poor,
cause you're still conquering America.
America, America, America,
You bomb the very ground,
you feed your own babies,
you're still conquering America
Your sons and your daughters,
May never sing your praises,
while you were conquering America.
America, America, America
Unseal your eyes,
see the distant shore,
while you were conquering America,
Take your rockets to the moon,
Try to find a new world,
And you're still conquering America.
America, America, America
The ghost of Columbus, haunts this world,
You're still conquering America,
You're still conquering America,
You're still conquering America
