AMERICA by Stephen Tosh

America Composed by Stephen Tosh. Sung by Davitt Felder. Recorded by Daniel Simpson. Video by Johnny Bristol. Recorded at Pac Rep, Carmel California. copyright 2014
(lyrics below)
There once was a dream called America.
Where people sought peace from hunger and war.
The people that nobody wanted
found safety and something much more.
A place to believe in freedom.
Pursuing the dreams that all of us share;
where everyone has importance,
a place in the sun free from care.
America, where have you gone?
America, your children are calling.
America, how can we dream?
If nightmares are all that are found?

So now we have corp'rate America,
where people are entries in books of deceit.
We live off the poor and the helpless,
with no sign of hope or release.
And where is our dream of freedom?
You can't legislate the things of the heart.
The rich are the ones who matter
our country is coming apart.
America, where have you gone?
America, your children are calling.
America, how can we dream?
When homeless are all that are found?

So, what is the answer America?
You once knew well
when you were quite young.
Let's bring back the rights you have traded,
for safety from standing as one.
We once had a dream of freedom
for everyone here, no matter how strange
How have we become so shallow?
It seems we've forgotten our name:
America, where have you gone?
America, your children are calling.
America, how can we dream?
When nightmares and homeless
and hunger and anger...
We all are America Now.......
Lyrics Stephen Tosh
