This is a continuance to his song made in 2001 “Have you forgotten”. In that song, he talks about the attack on 9/11. In this song he is talking to the world of today, telling them that we have forgotten all that has happened to our country and what we have been through. He tells us that we have let...
[Verse 1]
I hear people saying our best days are gone
A people once united can't even get along
A nation so divided, a country torn in two
It's such a shame after all that we've been through
We've always been a beacon
The world's one shining light
Are we gonna let it all go wrong for the sake of being right
[Chorus]
Have we forgotten who we really are
All the storms we've had to weather
And how we evеr got this far
Have we forgotten how it usеd to be
When we could still sit down together
And agree to disagree
And the common good was what we had in common
Have we forgotten
[Verse 2]
Red states and blue states
Left versus right
Seems like all we ever do is fuss and fight
I ain't pointing fingers, hell I'm guilty too
But how much more of this can we go through
The whole wide world is watching
While we go 'round and 'round
We need to come together y'all
And we better do it now
[Chorus]
Have we forgotten who we really are
All the storms we've had to weather
And how we ever got this far
Have we forgotten how it used to be
When we could still sit down together
And agree to disagree
And the common good was what we had in common
Have we forgotten
Have we forgotten
[Post-Chorus]
I remember when Americans were all red, white and blue
When it's all for one and one for all
There's nothing we can't do
[Verse 3]
Have we forgotten who we really are
How we braved the deep blue ocean
With freedom in our hearts
Have we forgotten how it used to be
When I was there for you and brother
You were there for me
And the common good was what we had in common
[Outro]
Have we forgotten
Have we forgotten
Have we forgotten
