Machine Head - A Nation On Fire

A Nation On Fire

Well I see, I feel
On my way
You close your eyes, scared to think
You might see
A world that spends more to ki will than to cure
Living, writhing, diseased, so unpure
It hardens me, the things I see
But I wont break. it gives me strength
Our suffering. wont always be
Well dominate. this nation on fire
The media it
Blinds out eyes
A people divided
And force fed lies
The black and white societies corrode
Warring, hating, blind, a rage explodes
So take my hand, across this land
I wont go down, stand my ground
Our suffering. wont always be
Well dominate. this nation on fire
This nations built on fighting war after war
And for my brothers, I wi will fight and stand for
Cause I wont break. Your truth is fake
If blood ran red, youd leave me for dead
A nation on fire
A nation on fire
You tell me peace, well I hear gunshots all night
The scars I have, I have earned cause I have had to fight
An endless pain, and it wont change
We just sat, and watched this world die
A nation on fire
A nation on fire
