Twelve scores ago
Our Fathers created our home
It used to have thirteen rooms,
Now it has fifty
It was a place where some can be free
Now It’s a place where everyone is free
There were some mistakes that sons and daughters changed
We fought with our neighbors and ourselves
Even through we had our disagreements in the past
We are trying to make peace with the whole neighborhood
Some houses like us; Others don’t
Some Sons and Daughters are still fighting over family traditions
Even all the houses are different in one or more way
We are trying to help every house be welcoming including our own
When the block looks blue, we all look at our Uncle Sam’s Dream
He used to bring the neighborhood fairness and freedom
Now we must help make his dream a reality
