Patriot lyrics

If I don't choose, I'm choosing isolation

If I don't believe,

I don't believe I need an explanation,

If I don't show,

there goes my reputation,

I'm a patriot, from no particular nation.

Oh, some go left, some go right,

some are here wishing they were there.

Some are wrong, some are right,

come on now, show the world you care.

Oh, I'm finding freedom,

my favorite destination.

Oh, I got on the bandwagon,

but it never left the station.

Fighting fire with fire is a bad, bad situation.

I'm a patriot, from no particular nation.

Oh, some go left, some go right,

some are here wishing they were there.

Some are wrong, some are right,

come on now, show the world you care.

Oh, I won't change heart in your fancy organization,

Every time I look for God, all I see is a constellation.

And every word I speak is a minor observation,

I'm a patriot, from no particular nation (...alright)

Fighting fire with fire is a bad, bad combination,

I'm a patriot, from no particular nation.
