Am C
The place I live has a name
F G
But there's another one, older
Am G F
Emerging through the mist
Am F G
I saw where I was as it was
F
Before we called it anything
Am C
Now we live in the wreckage
G F
Of a colonizing force
G
Whose racist poison still flows
Am G F
So scared of a moment of discomfort now
Am G
We turn away from the obvious
Am G C G F
All we have is stolen and can't be owned
Am C F G
This "America", the old idea, I want it to die
Am G F
Non-metaphorical decolonization
G
Beneath the one sky
F
Let this old world shatter
Am G
And transform
Am G F
Allegiance to nothing at all
Am G
But the burning present moment
Am G F
I cut the cord connecting then and now
G
And start again
F
I show the kid how to give up everything
