America Burning - Shinedown

Hip, hip, hip hooray they say

You've got it made

Hip, hip, hip hooray, hooray

Yeah, the world is a stage

Where you can act out loud and rattle the cage

And remove any doubt that you're enraged

Like a fool, I guess, at the end of the day

You might be woke but not awake

Pray if you need it

Beg if you want it

Scream if you're for it

Devastation

Pray if you need it

Beg if you want it

Scream if you hate it

Desperation, the wrong information

Pray for your family and cry yourself to sleep

Pledge your allegiance to the flag under your feet

Is this apocalypse now? Who let the animals out?

Hip hip hooray, say something shocking

Who doesn't love a parade with gasoline and grenades?

Don't be afraid, it's just America burning

Hip, hip, hip hooray they say

You've got it made

Your theory might be critical but who's in charge?

If victimhood is currency, then you won't starve

Pray if you need it

Beg if you want it

Scream if you're for it

Devastation

Pray if you need it

Beg if you want it

Scream if you hate it

Desperation, the wrong information

Pray for your family and cry yourself to sleep

Pledge your allegiance to the flag under your feet

Is this apocalypse now? Who let the animals out?

Hip hip hooray, say something shocking

Who doesn't love a parade with gasoline and grenades?

Don't be afraid, it's just America burning

Pray for your sanity and cry yourself to sleep

Pledge your allegiance to the flag under your feet

Is this apocalypse now? Who let the animals out?

Hip hip hooray, say something shocking

Who doesn't love a parade with gasoline and grenades?

Don't be afraid, it's just America burning
