ask Yah, believe me I tried
every time I thought I knew why
it turned out I knew lies, it's hard not to
know what to say to the youth today
let go of your anger and animosity
I know in life there's atrocity
all those who woke up too late
America...she was never great
she has always been filled with hate
for those who slept too late...America
she was never great, she raped she killed
she enslaved, while justice turned away
America...she was never great
I am not ashamed to say
America...she was never great
how much hell can one people tolerate
tell me why, she's so in a rush for us
to die, prophetically pathetic
the worlds most hated pigmentation
in the Nation, she pain, she slain
without a cause, broke the covenant
burned our laws, labeled us outlaws
hock a loogie and spit on our causes
look at this face, you damn well know my race
I am...not afraid to say
America...she was never great
in the first damn place
