American Soul lyrics

Intro: Kendrick Lamar]

Blessed are the bullies

For one day they will have to stand up to themselves

Blessed are the liars

For the truth can be awkward

[Verse 1: Bono]

It’s not a place

This country is to me a sound

Of drum and bass

You close your eyes to look around

[Bridge 1: Bono]

Look around, look around

Look around, it’s a sound

Look around, look around

It’s a sound

[Verse 2: Bono]

It’s not a place

This country is to me a thought

That offers grace

For every welcome that is sought

[Chorus: Bono]

You are rock and roll

You and I are rock and roll

You are rock and roll

Came here looking for American soul

[Verse 3: Bono]

It’s not a place

This is a dream the whole world owns

The pilgrim’s face

It had your heart to call her home

[Refrain]

Hold on, brother John

Too many mothers weeping

Dream on, brother John

In your dreams you can’t be sleeping

[Chorus: Bono]

You are rock and roll

You and I are rock and roll

You are rock and roll

Came here looking for American soul

American, American

[Bridge 2: Bono]

Put your hands in the air

Hold on the sky

Could be too late, but we still gotta try

There’s a moment in life where a soul can die

In a person in a country when you believe the lie

The lie (the lie, the lie)

There’s a promise in the heart of every good dream

It’s a call to action, not to fantasy

The end of a dream, the start of what’s real

Let it be unity, let it be community

For refugees like you and me

A country to receive us

Will you be our sanctuary

Refu-Jesus

[Chorus: Bono]

You are rock and roll

You and I are rock and roll

You are rock and roll

Came here looking for American soul

You are rock and roll

You and I are rock and roll

You are rock and roll

Came here looking for American soul

American soul, American soul
