West, on a plane bound west I see her stretchin' out below Land, blessed Mother Land The place where I was born Scars, yeah she's got her scars Sometimes it starts to worry me, 'Cause lose, I don't wanna lose Sight of who we are From the mountains high To the wave-crashed coast There's a way to find Better days, I know It's been a long hard ride, Got a ways to go But this is still the place That we all call home Free, nothin' feels like free, Though it sometimes means We don't get along 'Cause same, no we're not the same But that's what makes us strong From the mountains high To the wave-crashed coast There's a way to find Better days, I know. It's been a long hard ride, Got a ways to go But this is still the place That we all call home Brave, gotta call it brave To chase that dream across the sea Name, then they signed their names For something they believed Red, how the blood ran red We laid our dead in sacred ground Just think, wonder what they'd think If they could see us now It's been a long hard ride, Got a ways to go But this is still the place That we all call home. It's been a long hard ride, And I won't lose hope This is still the place That we all call home
