Great American Novel - STEVE CAMP[00:00:00]

I was born and raised an orphan in a land[00:00:30]

That once was free[00:00:35]

In a land that poured its love out on the moon[00:00:37]

And I grew up in the shadows of your silos[00:00:44]

Filled with grain[00:00:50]

But you never helped to fill my empty spoon[00:00:52]

You kill a black man at midnight[00:01:00]

Just for talking to your daughter[00:01:04]

Then you make his wife your mistress[00:01:08]

And you leave her without water[00:01:11]

And the sheet you wear upon your face[00:01:15]

Is the sheet your children sleep on[00:01:19]

You say your prayer at every meal[00:01:23]

You don't believe but still you keep on[00:01:26]

And your money says In God We Trust[00:01:32]

But it's against the law to pray in school[00:01:35]

You say we beat the Russians to the moon[00:01:39]

And I say you starved your children to do it[00:01:43]

We are far across the ocean[00:02:02]

In a the war that's not our own[00:02:06]

And while you're winning theirs[00:02:10]

We're gonna lose the one at home[00:02:13]

Do you really think the only way[00:02:17]

To bring about the peace[00:02:21]

Is to sacrifice your children[00:02:25]

And kill all your enemies [00:02:28]

The politicians all make speeches[00:02:31]

While the news men all take note[00:02:36]

And they exaggerate the issues[00:02:39]

As they shove them down our throats[00:02:43]

Is it really up to them[00:02:47]

Whether this country sinks or floats[00:02:50]

Well I wonder who would lead us[00:02:55]

If none of us would vote[00:02:58]

And your money says In God We Trust[00:03:04]

But it's against the law to pray in school[00:03:08]

You say we beat the Russians to the moon[00:03:11]

And I say you starved your children to do it[00:03:15]

You say all men are equal all men are brothers[00:03:19]

Then why are the rich more equal than others[00:03:23]

Don't ask me for the answer I've only got one[00:03:27]

That a man leaves his darkness when he follows the Son[00:03:31]

When he follows the Son[00:03:43]

Follows the Son[00:04:09]

Follows the Son[00:04:14]
