Ari Herstand lyrics : "Proud Honeybee"

So here we stand we are infants so small
Dreaming that one day we'll be on top of it all
Above the mountains above the trees

But here I sit wishing down on my knees

I've seen the creatures in this so-called promise land

I don't believe that what we brag is all that grand
Yes wave them flags like a proud honeybee
Blindly working for the queen of an invisible feat


So how do we recuperate?
Just now we emancipate

Our right to be free
With one tiny fee
We trash away

The innocent face
Of all the colors who stand in our way


America, home of the free and brave
Imperceptible to what her French statue raves
A prison cell holds on to our foreign hate

A beehive hell is fine for our conscience's sake

Because a honeybee gives treats to the free

but stings them dead if you frighten its destiny

America, home of the free and brave

Imperceptible to what her French statue raves
it's good enough when we lock up the fear
it's our master plan for patriot love right here


I am so fed up with the whole
Patriot scheme that's killing the dream

Of integration with everyone
How can we preach love
When we interfere with the buzz

?With liberty and justice for all?

America, home of the free and brave

Imperceptible to what her French statue raves
it's good enough when we lock up the fear
it's our master plan for patriot love right here


And this honeybee giving treats to the free,
stinging them dead I feel so free

Mama can't you see it's time for me to teach this honeybee to see

This hive is erasing

The words of our fathers dream
