๐Ÿ“œ Lyrics

And from the Indians who welcomed the Pilgrims
And the Buffalo who once ruled the plains
Like the vulture
Circling beneath the dark clouds
Looking for the rain
Looking for the rain

Just like the cities staggered on the coastline
Livin' in a nation that just can't take much more
Like the forest buried beneath the highway
Never had a chance to grow
Never had a chance to grow

And now it's winter
Feel like Winter in America
The time when all of the healers done been killed
Or they been betrayed
Yeah but the people know
All the people know it's winter
Feel like Winter in America

And the truth is there ain't nobody fighting
Because nobody knows what to save
Save your soul
Winter in America

The constitution, a noble piece of paper
Would free society, it struggled but then died in vain
And now Democracy is ragtime on the corner
Hoping for some rain
And looks like it's hoping for some rain

And I see the robins perched in barren treetops
They're wathing last-ditch racists marching across the floor
But just like the peace sign that vanished in our dreams
Never had chance to grow
Never had chance to grow

It's winter, winter in America
The time when all the healers done been killed
Or they been betrayed
But the people know
All the people know it's winter
Seem like winter in America

Yes, the true is nobody fighting, cause nobody knows what to save
Winter in America

And now it winter
It's cold nights it's winter in America
The time when all the healers done been killed
Or the betrayed
But the people
All the people know it's winter
Winter in America

The truth is there
Nobody fighting, cause nobody knows what to save
Nobody fighting, nobody fighting
Nobody knows, nobody know
What to do, what to do
The truth is there ain't nobody fighting
Because nobody knows what to save

Winter in America
