Lyrics
ARE YOU WITH US
(Linda Finkle c 2001)
Are you with us
Or are you against us
Do you hate us
Lay the blame for your problems on us
Could you please explain
The source of your pain
Cause it makes no sense to us
Are you for us
Or do you deplore us
While your people
Wanna be more like us
We didn?t give a damn
About your grand plan
Til you decided to include us
It?s not that simple
Oh yeah it really is
It?s not that easy
Nothing good ever is
It?s clear as day
You want it your way
Well you can just forget about that
Cause we?re living in the land of the brave
Living in the home of the free
Live love worship whatever we want
Be who we want to be
Yeah we?re living in America
Her people so strong and so good
Living in America
So many wish that they could
We don?t hate you
We don?t even know you
But if you hurt us
I sure feel sorry for you
We won?t sit back
If you choose to attack
And it?ll be like hell for you
So are you with us
Or are you against us
Can you stand to live
In the same world as us
Friend or foe
Yes or no
Cowards like you mean nothing to us
It?s not that simple
Oh yeah it really is
It?s not that easy
Nothing good ever is
It?s clear as day
We?ll have it our way
And you can just about count on that
Cause we?re living in the land of the brave?
Yeah we?re living in America
Her people so strong and so good
Living in America
So many wish that they could
I know you would if you could
