Amber waves, underwater
Spacious skies, threatening red
Tides have changed, breaking harder
You thought you'd be safe inland
But there's a crack in the shore where
Our forefathers gave a dam
Who holds back all that the water
When the levee breaks again
But they'll lend the hands that feed them
When the way out's washed away
The next door first responders
Up to their own knees in rain
When you cry out are you comin?
They say hold on tight, I am
They're rarin' for a parable
The good americans
Me and you are the same color when the power lines go dark
Red and Blue, like the blood that flows through both halves of our hearts
Us and them, friend or foe, there ain't one uniform in sight
Hand in hand, toe to toe, locked in a fight for both our lives
And they lend the hands that feed them
They'll keep US in the USA
The next door first responders
Up to their own necks in rain
When you cry out are you comin?
They'll shine a light and say, I am
Prepare for your parable
All good Americans
We're divided from sea to shining sea
We Unite in States of emergency
If we all fall in together we can weather out this storm
Or what's a neighbor even for?
What's a neighbor even for?
But they lend the hands that feed them
Answer that S.O.U.S.A
The next door first responders
Homegrown saving grace
When Old Glory's rags and their nation flags
Their sky-high standard stands
They're rarin' for a parable
The Good Americans
