America the so called great,

America the so called great,

stretching from California to New York State.

Where Donald Trump holds the power,

to a country that was better off during Eisenhower.

When the country was happy and at peace,

instead of nuclear bombs, ISIS and busy police.

When we werent obsessed with selfies, starbucks, and iphones,

and instead played ghost in the graveyeard trying to avoid the gravestones.

When the country wasn't in a 17 billion dollar debt,

so you had low taxes and could buy yourself a new corvette.

When the country was proud to welcome new immegrants,

and actually showed and thought that they were signifcant.

The country we live in may be of life, liberity and the pursuit of happiness,

but in my eyes it will never be the same.
