[00:00.39]I saw god out on the block today
[00:03.48]
[00:05.13]He was darker than the preachers say
[00:08.49]
[00:09.84]With a teardrop tattooed on his face
[00:12.63]
[00:14.40]And dirt on his fingers
[00:15.72]
[00:19.35]I heard angels when he laughed the way
[00:22.62]
[00:24.00]That people do when they have known true pain
[00:27.48]
[00:28.89]For his sins I don't know who's to blame
[00:31.32]
[00:33.33]What choice was he given
[00:34.77]
[00:35.61]In this world that we're living
[00:37.17]
[00:38.22]When I see you
[00:39.54]
[00:40.65]I see love
[00:41.76]
[00:43.02]I see america
[00:44.34]
[00:47.70]I feel your pain
[00:49.11]
[00:49.98]I share your blood
[00:51.24]
[00:52.47]I see america
[00:53.70]
[01:06.96]Said your mother knows a different time
[01:09.93]
[01:11.43]She lets her tongue slip with a glass of wine
[01:14.52]And says some things out loud that don't feel right
[01:19.26]And you always forgive her
[01:22.38]
[01:25.71]But don't you see the world is changing now
[01:28.98]
[01:30.27]The blood of the fallen cries out from the ground
[01:33.75]
[01:35.16]Violence and rumors in a southern town both start with a whisper
[01:41.31]
[01:42.24]But so does the difference
[01:44.04]
[01:44.70]When I see you
[01:49.02]
[01:50.43]I see love
[01:55.62]
[02:03.81]I see america
[02:10.74]
[02:12.87]I feel your pain
[02:20.28]
[02:22.38]I share your blood
[02:24.18]
[02:25.98]I see america
