Where I can walk down the street and get shot for being me
when my family came to this country,a ship sailing across a thrashing sea,
I will no longer lift my lamp
Beside this tarnished door.
My arm is tired. So few believe
We say the land of the free
And yet we have a scandal about our President’s
Pee.
As a little girl coming from South America to this new country,
"Why do we even have scholarships for minorities?"
You know, you're right
New York
The Big Apple
Largest city in America
She has welcomed many
America
A melting pot of people
Where the diversity is what is put into it,
What does it mean to be free?
To be on your own
To be left alone
To not be under any control
