Gerald Burkhart - Have You Ever Been Great Lyrics
Official




Well I'm an American
Global war and beer in a can
God blessed my special land
Built on my brothers' backs
I got everything I need
Unlimited corporate greed
I choose my leaders from
Reality tv
Now there's a dividing line
That side yours and this side mine
If I don't think you look right
I'll lock you up tight
Oh home of the brave
What have we became
The land of the free
Have you ever been great
I teach equality and peace
To those who share my beliefs
Meanwhile I ignore
What's outside my door
Got a thirst only oil feeds
If you question my needs
I'll bring down a strike
Light up your sky at night
Oh history's bad taste
First Nations laid to waste
And all the crosses burned
Leave me unconcerned
Oh home of the brave
What have we became
The land of the free
Have you ever been great
I can disguise my hate
I'll wrap it up in the flag
And while I'm diggin' graves
Star spangled banner waves
Got these conspiracy blues
Don't care about the nightly news
To make myself feel safe
I'll justify your rape
You say you've sacrificed
And I want more and more
Everyone has got a price
Now show me yours
Oh home of the brave
What have we became
The land of the free
Have you ever been great
