CountrAI - What Happened to U.S. Lyrics

What happened to us, the land of the free,
Where we once stood tall, as strong as can be?
Now we're splintered and torn, lost in the fray,
Chasin' the glitter, while our values fade away.

We used to build, used to strive, used to care,
Now we're lost in screens, breathin' digital air.
Our daughters and sons, in search of fame,
Losing themselves in an empty game.

What happened to U.S., where did we go?
We let it slip away, and we didn't know.
But together we'll rise, hand in hand,
We're all Americans, this is our land.
No matter our color, no matter our creed,
We'll stand for each other, in word and in deed.

We're lettin' strangers pour in, while our towns flood,
Ignoring our own, who've shed sweat and blood.
While Congress cashes in, on wars they feed,
We're here holding each other, in times of need.

Our roads are cracked, our schools have changed,
What once was solid, now feels strange.
But I still believe in this country we share,
We've just gotta wake up, show that we care.

What happened to U.S., where did we stray?
We let it fall apart, but we'll find our way.
'Cause together we're stronger, we'll find the fight,
We'll make this nation shine, we'll set it right.
No matter your faith, no matter your skin,
We're all Americans, we're all gonna win.

We've stumbled, we've fallen, but we're not done,
There's a fire in our hearts, a light like the sun.
We'll rise from these ashes, rebuild this place,
With love in our hearts, for every race.

For the builders, the dreamers, the ones left behind,
We'll lift each other up, we won't be blind.
No more divisions, no more lines,
It's America united, one heart, one mind.

So here we are, on this sacred ground,
With open hearts, we're turnin' it around.
We'll fight for our kids, for a future bright,
We'll bring back the values, we know are right.

We'll mend what's broken, heal what's torn,
Stand together, with hearts reborn.
It's time to rebuild, make it whole again,
America united, let the new age begin.

What happened to U.S., well now we know,
We forgot where we came from, we let it go.
But together we'll rise, like the stars in the night,
We'll bring back the pride, we'll make it right.
No matter our color, no matter our creed,
We're all Americans, that's all we need.

So here's to the future, here's to the dream,
We're takin' it back, we're raisin' the beam.
With love for each other, we'll stand side by side,
For the United States, with American pride.
From the mountains high, to the ocean blue,
We're all in this together, me and you.
