An American Idol

You know growing up I was always told
That you're never supposed to put a single human being above all others
That is an Idol
And we are never supposed to have an idol here on Earth, let alone America

There's never supposed to be an idol on earth
Never, ever supposed to be one better from birth
There's never supposed to be one greater than all
And there's never supposed to be places we don't belong

There's never supposed to be an idol on earth
Never, ever supposed to be one better from birth
There's never supposed to be one greater than all
And there's never supposed to be places we don't belong

On this morning I feel a strange bitter taste
Maybe comes from real emotional faith
I can only hope that all will break free
Because the sense is real they just may not see

But that doesn't mean, we should give up all hope
But when they ask if you're trippin, just simply answer with nope
Try to give them help, but don't let them sway
Here's a little answer for them, when they ask just say

Chorus:
There's never supposed to be an idol on earth
Never, ever supposed to be one better from birth
There's never supposed to be one greater than all
And there's never supposed to be places we don't belong

There's never supposed to be an idol on earth
Never, ever supposed to be one better from birth
There's never supposed to be one greater than all
And there's never supposed to be places we don't belong

If you're feeling now like you were lied to
You are not alone just look around you
It's the downside of having blind trust and faith
Most of us that follow are susceptible, it's ok

But now is the time to come back down earth
Look at who you are and figure out your own worth
There is nothing more sensible than what you will find
The mirror is the only way to get us out this bind

But you should now learn and be part of the team
Never ever again put all your faith inside another Human Being
If you really wanna make it in this world we live in now
Stop the hate, enjoy the fate, and this is where I'll take a bow

There's never supposed to be an idol on earth
Never, ever supposed to be one better from birth
There's never supposed to be one greater than all
And there's never supposed to be places we don't belong

There's never supposed to be an idol on earth
Never, ever supposed to be one better from birth
There's never supposed to be one greater than all
And there's never supposed to be places we don't belong
Hush
