America the Beautiful
Doa Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

lock your doors, lock it tight it's the new immoral right they wanna cleanse the home of the brave for the master race of the usa it's so beautiful on the street you won't know them like a pack of wolves in sheeps' clothing spreading wide, spreading far not just another false alarm it's so beautiful america -- i got my bible america -- i got my handgun america -- now i'm ready america -- home of the brave america - and the home of the slaves america -- now i'm ready but are you?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Doa's song "America the Beautiful" are a scathing critique of the current state of the country, with particular focus on the rise of far-right white supremacists. The opening lines urge listeners to "lock your doors, lock it tight" in response to this, and describes the far-right as the "new immoral right" who want to "cleanse the home of the brave for the master race of the USA". The use of "master race" should be no surprise -- this is a term coined by Nazis who believed that Aryans were a superior race that should rule the world, and it has been co-opted by white supremacists since then.

The chorus of the song repeats the refrain "America -- now I'm ready", but there's a sarcastic tone to the lyrics -- "America -- I got my Bible", "America -- I got my handgun". This suggests that the singer is prepared for the worst, but is also aware of the absurdity of the situation. The final line, "America -- now I'm ready but are you?" is a call to action -- urging people to wake up to what's happening around them and resist.
