Luyện nghe bài hát Searching for America

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

herded us like so much meat
Up from the to the street
concrete canyons stretched their walls
So high it made us to crawl
Past proverbs writ on cars
And the window bars
We walked until the pavement
And not a curse was unsaid

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

I caught a in my eye
Searching for a of sky
But the shadows drizzled like in Pompeii
That's how I spent my

for America
In the rivets and the
Searching for
Finding only

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

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

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

for America
All her and hopes
for America
Finding only

Who are these 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 mansions and their shacks
To hide here in-between the
hope is tattooed on my lips
Bleeding from my
They are crawling the promised land
Hand hand

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

Somewhere out
Are millions like me
Homesick for
at the memory

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