Just how life has changed in my lifetime
I know there's a place left where the stars still shine bright
And you can speak your mind without a fight
Not have to retreat and defend unwanted intrusion
No this is the real thing not a grand illusion

I've seen our jobs sent south to mexico
And our wages cut so I can't pay what I owe
Seen inflation rise and our freedom fall
Never giving up hope,I still stand tall

And I know this place, it's in my mind
But i've waitied for it ,i'll be just fine
Seen the writing that was on the wall
Then run over by the urban sprawl

Well i,ve read the bible but never been to Jeruasalem
I know the Devil and, know where he comes from
And I get the feeling i'm stuck somewhere in between
Been ostracized like i'm the one who's mean..................
