It's chaos, chaos everywhere! The economy has collapsed All the major cities have been attacked The U.N. and military is on the street Our food supply has been cut off They are hauling people off to FEMA camps They tell you to go the camps There is food there they say But they are executing people there! Stay away Run, run Where to run People are acting like animals America, our America is ruined Some political dissidents were taken From their homes in trucks Their weapons seized And all I have is food and water For a few days My can opener A knife I'm not a master survivalist I would have bought everything But I never had the money I want to live I want to live I will live I will live They try to make you scared With their guns and megaphones And martial law Martial law across the nation And will I stay at home Will they try to seize our emergency food Or will I flee Flee to the place of refuge that I know Have mercy on me Lord, a sinner Terrible trials have come upon us I pray that I will do what is right In your eyes Our America What has become of our America Of this nation The terrible times I think they are near

A Trying Time Is Perhaps Near
It's chaos, chaos everywhere! The economy has collapsed All the major cities have been attacked The U.N. and military is on the street Our food supply has been cut off They are hauling people off to FEMA camps They tell you to go the camps There is food there they say But they are executing people there! Stay away Run, run Where to run People are acting like animals America, our America is ruined Some political dissidents were taken From their homes in trucks Their weapons seized And all I have is food and water For a few days My can opener A knife I'm not a master survivalist I would have bought everything But I never had the money I want to live I want to live I will live I will live They try to make you scared With their guns and megaphones And martial law Martial law across the nation And will I stay at home Will they try to seize our emergency food Or will I flee Flee to the place of refuge that I know Have mercy on me Lord, a sinner Terrible trials have come upon us I pray that I will do what is right In your eyes Our America What has become of our America Of this nation The terrible times I think they are near
