Long Way From Home

Take a plane through the skies

Touch down

Step out

Squint your eyes

Welcome all

Shake my hand

There's not much you understand

See over here

We are good

We die younger than we should

What we make all gets spent

Better love our president

They said every road's gonna lead to rome

But

You're a long way from home

But you're a long way from home

Trade a master for a thief

We don't dare wish for relief

See here we have no safety net

Even the walls drip with sweat

So carry 'round a couple bills

Soldiers massing in the hills

Prayers start you're out of light

Where're you gonna stay tonight

Could it be were separated by a chromosome

'Cause

You're a long way from home

'Cause you're a long way from home

See we don't want to envy you

But it's just too hard not to

'Cause we can't leave the same way

Wish that we could have a day

To take a plane through the skies

Touch down

Step out

Squint eyes

Take some pictures

Maybe learn

Then be happy to return

See you where you live

See you in your superdome

And be a long way from home

And be a long way from home
