Mason Jennings Lyrics
"United States Global Empire"

Our United States of America
has quickly become a global empire
Come on!
See it now for what it really is
power-hungry with nothing much to give
and violent all in the name of freedom

Freedom is not domination
I believe freedom's got to come from within
yes it does
and without the gun
freedom is the ability to feel love for everyone

The empire controls the media
the media controls the world
Come on!
The media is the empire's mouth
capitalist propaganda coming out
and violence all in the name of freedom

Freedom is not competition
I believe that freedom's got to come from within
yes it does
not with the gun
freedom's the ability to feel love for everyone
