I Wanna Go Video (MV)

America the mighty
They say that once we were
But we sold our former glory
To the ranks of the absurd

Now within our Oval Office
Sits the shadow of a man
Rattling his saber
Of ridiculous demands

I wanna go
Far away from here
To a land
Where people see more clearly
That our hope
Lay not in waiving guns
Or casting blame
On all the "colored ones"
Oh, I wanna go

We lead the world in heart disease
Our prisons overflow
With the most violent criminals
This world has ever known

Killer cops patrol our streets
In military form
Looking for the next black man
To victimize and scorn

I wanna go
Far away from here
To a land
Where people see more clearly
That our hope
Lay not in waiving guns
Or casting blame
On all the "colored ones"
Oh, I wanna go
