Letra de The Promised Land - James J.t. Taylor

We've been searching up and down
This weary country, mmm...
Worn out looking for ways
That we can feed our hungry, oh-oh...
We were told the streets were paved with gold
And the future would be ours to hold
But we've seen the dream get bought and sold

In the promised land
We don't want to hear it anymore
'Cause the common man
Has heard all the promises before, yeah
In the promise land

We try to be faithful
To our true convictions, ooh-ooh...
But there's so much danger
In the heart's addictions, mm-hmm
We were told that we could have it all
Now our backs are up against the wall
As we stand looking at the rise-and-fall

Of the promise land
We don't want to hear it anymore
'Cause the common man
He's heard all the promises before

Smoldering ice, concrete and steel
Rebuild the dream that no longer seems real
Tell me where did we go wrong
And what would it take to heal this condition
Before it's too late now

In the promise land
We don't want to hear it anymore
'Cause the common man, ooh-ooh-ooh...
Ooh-ooh, yeah

In the promise land
We don't want to hear it anymore
'Cause the common man
He's heard all the promises before, oh...
