America Land of the Rich


Constantly America has shown its Strength

Today however people have begun to lose faith

The flag used to show hope for all

Now the flag only waves on the riches call

Here we stand together as they say

Here I beg you the rich must pay

We have come together in moments of pain

But america revolves around only the vain

Power has come and gone

But we have always been the riches pawn

In the past we had been divided

Now the poor merely abide

We have grown weak 

It appears now it is too late to speak
