Lyrics
in the land of the free
don’t want the ice man knocking on my door
no letters saying i can’t be here no more
in the land of the free
we got no kings who make us live in fear
we kicked them out ‘cuz we don’t want them here
in the land of the free
chorus:
don’t want to live under tyranny
just want to live my life in liberty
now i’m afraid to go outside my home
i’m afraid of what they’ll find on my phone
why can’t they just leave me alone?
in the land of the free
no masked ice agents out to kidnap me
lock me up and throw away the key
in the land of the free
look o’er my shoulder there’s an unmarked van
get where i’m goin just as fast as as i can
in the land of the free
chorus:
don’t want to live under tyranny
separated from my family
now i’m afraid to go outside my home
i’m afraid of what they’ll find on my phone
why can’t they just leave me alone?
in the land of the free
i don’t want to have to hide away
just want to work to feed my family
in the land of the free
we got no kings who make us live in fear
we kicked them out ‘cuz we don’t want them here
in the land of the free
in the land of the free
in the land of the free
in the land of the free
