American Spirit

I won’t stop searching 'til I find it

Lost like memories when I was a kid

Is it in crystals or a sound bath

Or the things I dreamt up, but I never did?

I’ve looked all over, seeing double

Do I need a single eye?

I need a mail order guru like those mail order brides

They say it’s all in meditation

But when I sit still, I’m afraid what I’ll find

Am I gonna get better?

Did I drink the Kool-Aid?

Am I looking in all the wrong places?

Is my body just space?

I got that American Spirit

It's searching for what I can’t find

I’m looking in holy rivers

I pray that she’ll show me a sign

If I let go of holding tightly

Will I see Jesus in a stranger tonight?

The devil hides in Coca-Cola

But if I’m high, will I be more qualified?

'Cause in my Elvis Presley record I found the light

And my books say I’m a badass for just $12.99

Maybe I’ll trace it to my family

But maybe some things, should be buried alive

I got that American Spirit

It's searching for what I can’t find

I’m looking in holy rivers

I pray that she’ll show me a sign

I’m giving up

I surrender to you

I’m giving up

I surrender to you

I’m giving up

Am I gonna get better?

Am I gonna get better?

I got that American Spirit

It's searching for what I can’t find

I’m looking in holy rivers

I pray that she’ll show me a sign

I got that American Spirit

It's searching for what I can’t find

I’m looking in holy rivers

I pray that she’ll show me a sign
