Native in a Nightmare

Lyrics

Statue of Liberty, symbol of a dream
 Come one, come all, your right to be free
 But every July 4 I hang my head in shame
 The shadow of hypocrisy taints your ideology
 (The land) The land was taken from its rightful owners
 This land was built on theft and genocide
 Lady Liberty should be wearing buckskin
 Raped & torn by the immigrant with greed in his eye
 The ground on which you stand
 Soaked with the blood of indigenous man
 The air in which you fly
 Is filled with the spirits of those you said must die
 (Native in a nightmare)
 For three hundred years
 (Native in a nightmare)
 No one even cares
 (Native in a nightmare)
 From which he'll never wake
 (Native in a nightmare)
 How much guilt can your conscience take?
 Tonight I hold my head down and pray
 That freedom for all can exist someday
 Now Lady Liberty
 Should be wearing eagle feathers
 Standing as a symbol
 Of the sacrifice made
 Lady Liberty
 Lady Liberty
 Native in a nightmare
 Native in a nightmare
