Take It Back

Lời bài hát

[Verse 1] I saw the tired flag Hanging in the rain I saw my brothers bend Under too much pain They sold us empty promises And called it progress too But down on Main Street We remember what is true We built these towns with hands We fed this land with sweat We don’t forget the price We don’t surrender yet You can paint it any color But the cracks still show When the working man is asking Where the hell did freedom go [Pre-Chorus] Stand up, stand up Hear that freedom call If we’re gonna rise tonight We rise for all Stand up, stand up Let the whole world see This old red, white, and blue Still belongs to you and me [Chorus] Take it back Take it back America, take it back (We take it back) Take it back Take it back Stand up, don’t turn your back (Stand up now) From the fields to the tracks From the schoolyards to the docks We’re not bowing, we’re not broken We’re the ones who hold the rocks [Verse 2] They fill the screens with noise And call it common sense But a lie gets loud When the truth gets tense I hear the moms on porches I hear the vets still pray I hear the kids ask where the future is And I say, “It starts today” We need back our faith We need back our voice We need a country built on duty Not on fear and not on choice Not on backroom deals Not on chains of shame We’re a people of conviction And we know why we came [Pre-Chorus] Stand up, stand up Hear that freedom call If we’re gonna rise tonight We rise for all Stand up, stand up Let the whole world see This old red, white, and blue Still belongs to you and me [Chorus] Take it back Take it back America, take it back (We take it back) Take it back Take it back Stand up, don’t turn your back (Stand up now) From the fields to the tracks From the schoolyards to the docks We’re not bowing, we’re not broken We’re the ones who hold the rocks [Bridge] I’m talking faith in the morning Hope in the dead of night Hard hands, clear eyes And the will to do it right No more begging for a rescue No more running from the flame If you want this nation saved Then you better say the name [Breakdown] Say it loud Say it clear We were born to stand right here Say it loud Say it proud Let the whole wide world hear now [Final Chorus] Take it back Take it back America, take it back (We take it back) Take it back Take it back Stand up, don’t turn your back (Stand up now) From the fields to the tracks From the schoolyards to the docks We’re not bowing, we’re not broken We’re the ones who hold the rocks Take it back Take it back One nation, hear us cry (We take it back) Take it back Take it back For our children and our lives (Stand up now) From the farm to the front porch From the river to the plains We’re the fire in the heartland And we’re coming back again
