I'm not American and I think this song could be about every country in the world. We all over the world could do better, our leaders could do better. Thank you.
I have been so angry and frustrated with my country. I know that we’re better than this. We need better leadership, but we can’t wait on others. It’s true….. We better lead the way. United we stand. Divided we fall. ♥️🇺🇸
Don't just think this is just with your country though, the whole world is the same way. Your country ain't better than any other, just like mine isn't.
@@saschroach I’m not saying that we’re better than others. I’m saying we’re better than what we’ve become. Anyone can become better if they put in the work. I believe in hope, morals, and values. You’re right we need to do better as a society. However, this song talks about the US. So my message was to fellow Americans but it can be true for other nationalities as well. Take what you want from it, but I stand with what I said. Americans have to step up just like everybody else does. Peace and love to you✌️ 🕊
We don't need leadership. We need to feel what is right in our soul. Get back to nature. Stop throwing away things that seem flawed or broken including animal's. Weve become such a greedy species. Once the broken realize they aren't worthless like they've become told they will be stronger than the whole who follow and forget to think for themselves. Stand outside somewhere away from the city at night and close your eyes just listen slow your mind and get back to your roots oh what wonders it does for the soul!!!! May make you feel alittle crazy but embrace that normal is severely overrated!!!!
@@valerieramirez3496 agreed, take the lead! Help others understand. Leadership is what inspires and provides change. Whether that change is positive or negative that will impact others and influence the direction of the situation. Leadership is important to help others understand what you’re explaining ☺️
Never disappoints. Should have much more recognition. Genuine crime that this isn't trending while people who write songs that mean absolutely nothing to them are #1. It's shameful how soul artists don't get attention.
Fitting song these days. I love that Shawn keeps evolving, he doesn't stay in one area it seems, genre wise, and musically. This has a bit of a blues feel to it.
This should be a song for all the Americans we do not need politics anymore we should have never had it in the first place we as an Americans are strong enough to run the country by ourselves.
Beautiful, powerful song. ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼✊🏻✊ Such an underrated/underpromoted artist. I hope to see you perform live one day. Any plans to come to Raleigh, NC?? 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you so much for being a mindful artist Shawn. I believe the most of us have already realized, that humanity is breaking bad. I feel like our mothership called Earth is sinking and we are fighting about who is guilty, instead of acting responsible. Whatever might be the biggest issue in your opinion, go lead the way. Take back your responsibility
Damn man, you did it again. You're not just a singer, but a poet, and most importantly a good human. I needed to hear some of these words today. Thank you. Hope to meet you one day. Hopefully when you get back into the Fayetteville area again, if ever. Be well brother.
Wow! That’s powerful! I’ve been watching the world lose it’s mind and asking myself, “ Where are the bards?” I think I found one of them. There are a few others out there too, they are so important because it’s the music that we coalesce around.❤️🐝
Love it! This song is perfect for your voice and it really rocks! This is quickly becoming one of my favorites, still listening to it on repeat. WOW!!!!!
Great song and video. Our society needs to change, when we have millions of homeless people & we have sports figures and movie stars earning millions of dollars to entertain us something is seriously wrong
@@EllisAnimalDefender Read a little more closely. Its been 6 months, the comment I replied to has been removed. I was not referring to the OP. Thanks for reminding me this masterpiece of a song exists though ^_^.
It starts with leadership first and then everything comes to pass next we need a leader we need a head or the people are going to have to make a decision soon or else we're all screwed and they have been quiet so who knows maybe we're already too late but it's never too late supposably hopefully we to get a better leader soon everything else has to wait leadership is what's important now

Can't believe it's been over a year since I went to your concert and hung out with you and my uncle Christopher Morris. Always love you music. Keep on that grind 💪

Truth I could listen to him read a dictionary if he did that extended yodel scream he does so well.
He is hands down one of the best artist of this century along with his vocals.
Not enough credit due to this man.

Great song and video. Our society needs to change, when we have millions of homeless people & we have sports figures and movie stars earning millions of dollars to entertain us something is seriously wrong

Letra español:
América
la hermosa
América
la gran tierra de la libertad
hogar de los valientes
almas que no encuentran paz mental
sobre cómo deberían sentirse por milésima vez
esta libertad no es lo que parece
Así que destrúyelo
tómalo todo
te mostraré algo que vale mucho más
que una figura perfecta
o algún tipo de catalogación estándar
Dijeron que vendría un cambio
pero no he visto nada nuevo bajo el sol
si se va a producir un cambio
es mejor que lideremos el camino
¿Cuántas veces
debemos cometer los mismos errores?
Debemos aprender
de los errores del pasado.
¿Cuánto tiempo pasará
hasta que nos demos cuenta de lo que está en juego?
y dejar de fanfarronear
con una mano debilitada y marchita
Así que destrúyelo
tómalo todo
te mostraré algo que vale mucho más
que una figura perfecta
o algún tipo de catalogación estándar
Dijeron que vendría un cambio
pero no he visto nada nuevo bajo el sol
si se va a producir un cambio
es mejor que lideremos el camino
Así que destrúyelo
tómalo todo
te mostraré algo que vale mucho más
que una figura perfecta
o algún tipo de catalogación estándar
Dijeron que vendría un cambio
pero no he visto nada nuevo bajo el sol
si se va a producir un cambio
es mejor que lideremos el camino
si se va a producir un cambio
es mejor que lideremos el camino
ahora, si se va a producir un cambio
es mejor que lideremos...
es mejor que lideremos el camino
Lyrics:
América
the beautiful
América
the great land of the free
home of the brave
souls who find no peace of mind
for what must feel like
the thousandth time
this freedom ain't what it seems
so give me the broken
you take the whole
i'll show you something
worth so much more
than a perfect figure or frame
of some sorta standard way
they said a change
was gonna come
but i ain't seen nothing new under the sun
if a change is to be
we better lead the way
how many times
must we make
the same mistakes
the learn from the wrongs
of the past
just how long will it be
til we realize the stakes
and stop bluffing
with a withered weaker hand
so give me the broken
you take the whole
i'll show you something
worth so much more
than a perfect figure or frame
of some sorta standard way
they said a change
was gonna come
but i ain't seen nothin new under the sun
if a change is to be
we better lead the way
so give me the broken
you take the whole
i'll show you something
worth so much more
than a perfect figure or frame
of some sorta standard way
they said a change
was gonna come
but i ain't seen nothin new under the sun
if a change is to be
we better lead the way
if a change is to be
we better lead
now if a change is to be
we better lead...
we better lead the way
