American Tragedy - Tait

Art is in motion, look around

At the everyday people in everyday towns

Love is an ocean as deep as the sky

Gotta keep our arms open or we’re never gonna fly

It’s a tragedy all the hate I see

Am I left to be a slave to history?

Love’s our common ground yeah, my skin is brown

Ain’t no sweeter sound walls are tumblin' down

I can’t deny it overwhelms

That changing your world means changing yourself

And you can’t tell me that you’ve already tried

'Cause we’re never gonna shine until we swallow our pride

It’s a tragedy all the hate I see

Am I left to be a slave to history?

Love’s our common ground yeah, my skin is brown

Ain’t no sweeter sound walls are tumblin' down

Yes it’s a tragedy all the hate I see

Am I left to be a slave to history?

Love’s our common ground yeah, my skin is brown

Ain’t no sweeter sound walls are tumblin' down

Questions in you are the questions in me

And I’m no closer to answers than you are to me

If we just believe then we all can be free
