Lirik Lagu American Requiem, Lagu Terbaru dari Beyonce

[Chorus]

Can we stand for something?

Now is the time to face the wind (Now is the time to face the wind)

Now ain't the time to pretend

Now is the time to let love in (To let love in)

Together, can we stand?

[Verse 2]

Looka there, looka in my hand

The grandbaby of a moonshine man

Gadsden, Alabama

Got folk down in Galveston, rooted in Louisiana

Used to say I spoke too country

And the rejection came, said I wasn't country 'nough

Said I wouldn't saddle up, but

If that ain't country, tell me what is?

Plant my bare feet on solid ground for years

They don't, don't know how hard I had to fight for this

When I sang my song

[Outro]

(When I sang the song of Abraham)

(When the angels guide and take my hand)

(Oh, no)

Goodbye to what has been

A pretty house that we never settled in

A funeral for fair-weather friends

I am the one to cleanse me of my Father's sins

American Requiem

Them big ideas (Yeah) are buried here (Yeah)

Amen
