๐ Lyrics
We've been searching up and down this weary country
Worn out looking for ways that we could feed our hungry
We were told the streets were paved with gold (paved with gold)
And the future would be ours to hold
But we've seen the dream get bought and sold
In the promised land
We don't want to hear it anymore
'Cause the common man
Has heard all the promises before, yeah
In the promised land
We try to be faithful to our true convictions
But there's so much danger in the heart's addictions
We were told that we could have it all (have it all)
Now our backs are up against the wall
As we stand looking at the rise-and-fall
Of the promised land
We don't want to hear it anymore
'Cause the common man
Has heard all the promises before
Smoldering ice, concrete and steel
Rebuild the dream that no longer seems real
Tell me, where did we go wrong?
And what would it take to heal this condition
Before it's too late now
In the promised land
We don't want to hear it anymore
'Cause the common man
Has heard all the promises before
In the promised land
We don't want to hear it anymore
'Cause the common man
He's heard all the promises before
In the promised land
'Cause the common man
He's heard it all, no more promises
In the promised land (we don't wanna)
'Cause the common man
Looking for ways that we could feed our hungry
And what will it take?
Worn out looking for ways that we could feed our hungry
We were told the streets were paved with gold (paved with gold)
And the future would be ours to hold
But we've seen the dream get bought and sold
In the promised land
We don't want to hear it anymore
'Cause the common man
Has heard all the promises before, yeah
In the promised land
We try to be faithful to our true convictions
But there's so much danger in the heart's addictions
We were told that we could have it all (have it all)
Now our backs are up against the wall
As we stand looking at the rise-and-fall
Of the promised land
We don't want to hear it anymore
'Cause the common man
Has heard all the promises before
Smoldering ice, concrete and steel
Rebuild the dream that no longer seems real
Tell me, where did we go wrong?
And what would it take to heal this condition
Before it's too late now
In the promised land
We don't want to hear it anymore
'Cause the common man
Has heard all the promises before
In the promised land
We don't want to hear it anymore
'Cause the common man
He's heard all the promises before
In the promised land
'Cause the common man
He's heard it all, no more promises
In the promised land (we don't wanna)
'Cause the common man
Looking for ways that we could feed our hungry
And what will it take?
