America the great

America the great

 

America the great

what happened to your grace?

Was it ever there?

Or just one of the many illusions you create?

 

Your dream desirable

yet unreachable

Your justice existent

yet unfair

 

Your society unique

Yet with growing hate

They accuse the innocent

By freeing guilty men

 

Oh America, why can’t you set us free?

From your judgment

Your false promises

and the lies you hide within

 

But still I believe

you will give what was promised

With gleaming hope every morning

hoping for a better future 

hoping for a better day
