American dream we are lost, though it seems,
I see you floating woah, drifting out of sight,
Not so many years ago you were born out of ideals,
Now abandoned and forgotten in the night,
But I remember when you were lost and crying for mercy,
Do you have it for those that now are in your sights?
And didn't you know you would become what you hated,
Take a look at yourself then tell me what is right,
What is right?
Soldier of fortune I have seen you come and go,
You've sold your soul, for the highest price,
And when you wake up in the morning,
With your wife and kids at home,
Tell me what do they see when they look in your eyes,
They remember when you were lost and crying for mercy,
Do you have it for those that now are in your sights?
And didn't you know you would become what you hated,
Take a look at yourself then tell me what is right,
What is right?
Hey mister mister with the power in the palm of your hand,
I don't understand what I see in your eyes,
Well maybe to you we're all just pawns in your game,
And you're playing chess with millions of our lives,
But we remember when you were lost and crying for mercy,
Do you have it for those that now are in your sights?
And didn't you know you would become what you hated,
Take a look at yourself then tell me what is right,
What is right?
In your sights...
Well the right is right and the left is right and the middle is to the right of the left, and left, right, right, left, left, right, right, left...
