Luyện nghe bài hát Searching for America

Where have you been that made you
And these stains upon your cheek
did you see while you were gone
That haunts eyes this sunny dawn

herded us like so much meat
Up the sewers to the street
Where concrete canyons stretched their
So it made us want to crawl
Past proverbs on subway cars
And in-between the bars
We walked until the bled
And not a curse was left

Into a place that no spring
Where only steel and silver
They made us dance we dropped
And the of the jackhammers stopped

I a cinder in my eye
for a patch of sky
But the shadows down like in Pompeii
That's how I spent my

for America
In the and the rust
for America
Finding only

did you see that made you cry
And left trackmarks on your eye
What did you find while you there
That the light out of the morning air

They gave us a cropper's shack
And land so hard it our back
Then fed us our bellies burst
On that died at birth
So I lay the out each dawn
In-between the tender
With sunrise for her
And her only blanket

We until we bled
every single root ran red
And when the work was finally
They gave our names to
I did not know how bad it
I lay there eating dirt
And the cold seeped in between my
That's I was when I left home

for America
All her dreams and
Searching for
only ghosts

Who are people you have seen
To dream this dark and distant
To the stories you have told
To leave these bruises on soul

are the flesh, they are the bone
They are the cornerstone
They leave their mansions and shacks
To hide in-between the cracks
Their is tattooed on my lips
from my fingertips
They are crawling toward the promised
over hand

To walk until they run no
And up on some distant shore
Where truth is not the
And whatever not kill us, sets us free

out there
Are just like me
for Eden
Heartsick at the

Searching for
In stick and stone
Searching for
home
Searching for
Going
