America Can You Feel The Pain

In the heartland, where the cornfields grow
There's a story seldom told, it's one of woe
Families struggling, their dreams slipping away
In the land of the free, it's a harsh price they pay

Oh, America, can you see the pain
In the hearts of your people, drowned by the rain
We're still standing, still believing in the dream
But the road is long, and the waters aren't clean

Factories closing, jobs are hard to find
Folks are left behind, their hopes, they unwind
The political winds, they blow left and right
But the storm that's here, it's a day-to-day fight

Oh, America, can you hear the cry
Of the ones who need a helping hand, reaching high
We're still striving, still yearning for the light
But the path is steep, and the nights are long and cold

Red or blue, it's a hue that we wear
But beneath the colors, it's the heartache we share
United we stand, divided we fall
Let's bridge the gap, and heed the call

In the heartland, where the sunsets glow
There's a resilience, a strength that we know
We'll keep on working, keep on dreaming, too
In the land of the brave, it's what we must do

Oh, America, can you feel the hope
In the hearts of your people, learning to cope
We're still healing, still searching for the truth
But the journey's worth it, for the love we have for you

In the heartland, where the stars shine bright
We'll keep on moving, toward the light
For the love of the land, and the people, it's true
We'll keep on singing, this heartland blues
