lyrics

In America (What’s Going On?)

What’s going on?

Verse One
Should I be afraid to speak my mind?
In America
If I burn the flag, will I do some time?
In America
Does it make a difference what race I’m in?
In America
Does freedom equal white skin?
In America

Well, well, well….

Chorus
I gotta know
What’s going on?
Can I get a witness?
What’s going on?

I gotta know
What’s going on?
Let me get a witness?
What’s going on?

You better know.
What’s going on?
Give me a witness.
What’s going on?

I gotta know
What’s going on?
We’ve got to witness.
What’s going on?

Verse Two
You tell me that I am free.
In America
But it’s a dope man or poverty?
In America
Does it make a difference what race I’m in?
In America
Or does freedom equal white skin?
In America
Well, well, well….


Change
You want this nation
To unite as one,
But you deny you black
Daugthers and sons?

First Verse

Chorus

Change
