RACOON NATION LYRICS

It's a new day
My babies their ready to stray
from the nest that I made
The sun is rising again
I must teach them to fend

While they say we shouldn't be here
They say we are the source of fear
They say nothing matters but them

It was a close call
We were almost in sight
If so we would surely lose the
fight to the poisons they give
My young are just learning to live

While they say we shouldn't be here
They say we are the source of fear
They say nothing matters but them

I want my children to thrive
I don't want to just survive
And maybe I wanna fight back

Because we know we were the first ones here
We know they hold the source of fear
We know we will live free again
