Machine Head - 7 A Nation On Fire lyrics

Well I see, I feel

On my way

You close your eyes, scared to think

You might see

A world that spends more to kill than to cure

Living, writhing, diseased, so unpure

It hardens me, the things I see

But I won't break, it gives me strength

Chorus:

Our suffering, won't always be

We'll dominate, this nation on fire

The media it

Blinds our eyes

A people divided

And force feds lies

The black and white societies corrode

Warring, hating, blind, a rage explodes

So take my hand across this land

I won't go down, stand my ground

Chorus

This nation's built on fighting war after war

And for my brothers, I will fight and stand for

'Cause I won't break, Your truth is fake

If blood ran red, You's leave me for dead

A nation on fire

A nation on fire

You tell me peace, Well I hear gunshots all night

The scars I have, I've earned 'cause I've had to fight

An endless pain, and it won't change

We just sat by, and watched this world die

A nation on fire

A nation on fire
