Americans (Explicit) - Janelle Monáe (加奈儿·梦奈)

Written by：John M. Webb Jr./Charles Joseph II/Janelle Monáe Robinson/Nathaniel Irvin III

Hold on don't fight your war alone

Halo around you don't have to face it on your own

We will win this fight

All souls be brave

We'll find a way to heaven

We'll find a way

War is old so is sex

Let's play god you go next

Heads go up men go down

Try my luck stand my ground

Die in church live in jail

Say her name twice in hell

Uncle Sam kissed a man

Jim Crow Jesus rose again

I like my woman in the kitchen

I teach my children superstitions

I keep my two guns on my blue nightstand

A pretty young thang she can wash my clothes

But she'll never ever wear my pants

I pledge allegiance to the flag

Learned the words from my mom and dad

Cross my heart and I hope to die

With a big old piece of american pie

Love me baby love me for who I am

Fallen angels singing clap your hands

Don't try to take my country I will defend my land

I'm not crazy baby naw

I'm american

I'm american

I'm american

I'm american

Seventy-nine cent to your dollar

All that bullsh*t from white-collars

You see my color before my vision

Sometimes I wonder if you will fly

Would it help you make a better decision

I pledge allegiance to the flag

Learned the words from my mom and dad

Cross my heart and I hope to die

With a big old piece of american pie

Just love me baby love me for who I am

Fallen angels singing clap your hands

Don't try to take my country I will defend my land

I'm not crazy baby naw

I'm american

I'm american

I'm american

I'm american

Let me help you in here

Until women can get equal pay for equal work

This is not my America

Until same gender loving people can be who they are

This is not my America

Until black people can come home from a police stop

Without being shot in the head

This is not my America

Until poor whites can get a shot at being successful

This is not my America

I can't hear nobody talkin' to me

Just love me baby love me for who I am

Fallen angels singing clap your hands

Don't try to take my country I will defend my land

I'm not crazy baby naw

I'm american love me baby

I'm american love me for who I am

Until Latinos and Latinas don't have to run from walls

This is not my America

But I tell you today that the devil is a liar

Because it's gon' be my America before it's all over
