The Battle for America’s Soul

Verse 1:
I see the “me” men in their towers high
Counting every dollar ‘neath a blood-red sky
They say, “It’s mine, I earned this all,”
But outside their gates, we hear the call

Pre-Chorus:
We are the “we,” the workers’ hands
We are the ones who till the land
But they take the fruits, they hoard the gold
The story’s old, the story’s told

Chorus:
It’s me versus we, the battle we fight
They build their empires in the dead of night
But we are the people, the voices that sing
For the soul of this land, we rise again

Verse 2:
The “me” says power, the “me” says greed
The “we” says justice, the “we” says need
They’ll try to break us, buy our dreams
But we’re the rivers, we’re the streams

Pre-Chorus:
They live in castles, safe and grand
While we are crowded, hand in hand
But what they fear is unity
The strength we hold in “we,” not “me”

Chorus:
It’s me versus we, the battle we fight
They build their empires in the dead of night
But we are the people, the voices that sing
For the soul of this land, we rise again

Bridge:
“Me” says conquer, “we” says share
“Me” says hoard it, “we” says care
“Me” divides, “we” unites
In the darkness, we’ll be the light

Chorus:
It’s me versus we, the battle we fight
They build their empires in the dead of night
But we are the people, the voices that sing
For the soul of this land, we rise again

Outro:
So let the “me” men count their gain
We’ll bind together through the pain
For the soul of America, we’ll stand tall
In the battle of “me” and “we,” we’ll win it all
In the battle of “me” and “we,” we’ll win it all
