My fellow American(t)s and I

Oh sweet land of liberty

Millions living in poverty

Land of the free

So all of us true Americans decree

Home of the brave

People taking that title to their grave

When did our country start sound like a drivel and a joke

Was it recently when we were forced to choose between the two evils as a leader

but of course it was the people who made these choices

We were blinded when people angrily shouted make America great again

and the people who laughed at their nonsense

A man with the mind of a boy with too much money running to lead our country

or when we were exstatic about a person with a vagina running

that we overlooked her questionalble records

Us as citizens acted even worse

Destroying buisnesses because our feelings werent heard

Well they were seen

As a joke that is

Destroying buisnesses and peoples jobs

Were you really any better then the corrupt politicians

Actions unfortunatly speak louder than words

Your actions drowned out actual protests

Intelligent words wise words you only added to the flame

We pride ourselves in being such a great country

A place of diversity and freedom to be who you are

Unless of course you're from Syria, Iraq, Iran, Libya, Sudan, Yemen, or Somalia

Because only terriosts come from there

The helpless family exposed to bombings and toxic gas that pray for a better life

Obviosly the only thing on their mind is to threat the U.S.A

I do love my country

But something is wrong with us

From poverty to joke politicians to racial discrimination

The list could go on forever

I know we can be better

We have the power to be something beautiful

So sweet land of liberty

Help us end poverty

Help us not let our fears rule us to the point we ban human beings

Help us all be better people

Help us to be rational

There are still good people out here

We truly want to help we just dont know how

Please sweet land of the free

Even if we may not desreve it

Help us.
