I Love America
Revolutionary Anthem: Unveiling the Depths of American Strife
Lyrics
I love America
"I love America"
Evolution of the world today
Observation on the current state of the world's development
Establishment closed all the places we play
Traditional venues for expression are shut down by the authorities
Present state Reagan's regime
Reference to the era of Ronald Reagan's leadership
Closed the Nest it's society's ream
A criticism of society's idealized notions, possibly referring to a closed community or an exclusive group ("the Nest")
I love America we dropped the bomb
Expressing love for America despite its use of nuclear weapons
I love America our nation strong
Pride in America's strength as a nation
I love American youth of today
Appreciation for the younger generation of Americans
We love America and for God we pray
Expressing love for America and a religious reference ("for God we pray")
Socialist Ideals perfection means
Contrasting socialist ideals with capitalist freedoms
Capitalist pigs freedom rings
Reference to those who benefit from capitalist systems while criticizing the socialist pursuit of perfection
Lust existence lost all possessed
Loss of primal desires and a sense of longing
It's only the beginning it's only a test
Viewing current events as the initial phase or a trial
I love America we dropped the bomb
Reiteration of love for America despite past actions (dropping the bomb)
I love America our nation strong
Reinforcing pride in America's strength
I love American that's why I sing
Reasoning behind the expression of love for America
We love America let our freedom ring
Advocating for the celebration of freedom in America
In the book of life told of Babylon
Reference to Babylon in the context of the Book of Life, hinting at prophetic chaos and destruction
They'll be havoc and destruction
Anticipation of havoc and widespread devastation
all will be gone
Suggesting the obliteration of everything
Don't turn your back or lose your faith
Warning against losing faith or abandoning beliefs
Or you won't return to the better place
Implying an inability to return to a better state if faith is lost
Chorus 1
Chorus repetition, reinforcing the love for America
