“In America today, your life chances depend largely on how you started where you grew up and how much your parents earned.
Everything else – whether you attend college, your chances of landing a well-paying job, even your health – hinges on this start

[Verse 1]
The bottom floor of a cold building
Promised a career and a diamond ring
Glass ceiling above, nothing under her feet
"Honey, just give me a smile, how hard can that be?"
[Pre-Chorus]
Life at 26 ain't what she thought it would be
Now she’s waking up from an American dream
[Chorus]
No rain falls to a spoiled land
Who is un-American, un-American?
No peace comes from a greedy hand
Who is un-American, un-American?
[Post-Chorus]
Whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh

No rain falls to a spoiled land
Who is un-American, un-American?
No peace comes from a greedy hand
Who is un-American, un-American?
[Post-Chorus]
Whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh

[Chorus]
No rain falls to a spoiled land
Who is un-American, un-American?
No peace comes from a greedy hand
Who is un-American, un-American?
[Post-Chorus]
Whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh

“‘Un-American’ is an idea that we would usually not touch with a 150-foot pole because we don’t see ourselves as people who should champion what is American and what isn’t. But it’s impossible to ignore the violence that was necessary for America to be born and to become what it is. So the idea of s...
