America the Flawed

America the Great

At keeping

Gun violence alive

America the Great

At avoiding

The hungry and deprived

America the Great

At discriminating those

Who seek a better life

America the Great

At letting children

Fall victim to a knife

America the Great

At holding jobs

From the unemployed

America the Great

At creating fear

In communities destroyed

America the Great

At showing equality

In a system of elites-only

America the Great

At letting men be supreme

And women just a trophy

America the Great

At polluting

Our only home

America the Great

At convincing everyone that

The president doesn't live on a throne
