Born from your womb
Raised in darkness
Bred to be unleashed
On my fellow men
You nurtured me
In your sagging bosom
In return
I have done your dirty work
You made me
Now you blame me
For what I've become
America, I'm your son
Don't leave me
Holding the baby
You and me we are one
America, I'm your son
You taught me well
Your seed of evil fell on fertile ground
A man reaps what he sows
I tried to be
A good boy
I have sworn to carry on
Your legacy of hate and fear
You made me
Now you hate me
For all that I've done
America, I'm your son
Don't leave me
Holding the baby
You and me we are one
America, I'm your son
