[Verse 1: Joshua Roberts]
Another shooting today
Five wounded, three are dead
Then those who stand up and say (Yeah), "We need to stop this"
But they just talk a lot of shit and never solve it

[Chorus: Joshua Roberts]
Life in the U.S.A (It's so great, it's so great)
I love feeling unsafe (We're okay, we're okay)
Gonna work 'til I die for a CEO
Helping a life that I'll never know
I need help, can't afford to go
The American dream's just dying

[Post-Chorus: Joshua Roberts]
Slow, slow

[Verse 2: TX2 & Joshua Roberts]
The system will keep you safe (Born in America, baby)
As long as you're white and you're straight (Wait, wait, wait, I thought you just said that—)
'Cause some folks are still racist, I hate to say it
But maybe DeSantis is gay (Wait, did he just say that? Hell yeah, brother)

[Chorus: Joshua Roberts & TX2]
Life in the U.S.A (It's so great, it's so great)
I love feeling unsafe (We're okay, we're okay)
Gonna work 'til I die for a CEO
Helping a life that I'll never know
I need help, can't afford to go
The American dream's just dying
[Post-Chorus: Joshua Roberts & TX2]
Slow, slow

[Bridge: Joshua Roberts, TX2 & Both]
We need more guns, we don't need healthcare
Let's build a wall, we don't need welfare
I just wanna line a rich guy's pockets, I want less action and a lot more talkin'
Human rights are too political now (And we all say—)

[Chorus: Joshua Roberts & TX2]
Life in the U.S.A (It's so great, it's so great)
I love feeling unsafe (We're okay, we're okay)
Gonna work 'til I die for a CEO
Helping a life that I'll never know
I need help, can't afford to go
The American dream's just dying

[Outro: Joshua Roberts]
Slow, slow
