Americas CrossRoads

June 17, 2016

( Rap to the beat of “Lonely Roads” Deep Sad Piano Beat)

Here we are america

From long roads we have traveled

But times are getting harder

We are starting to unravel

2015 hit us hard

With the choices that we made

But we need to be better

One voice, 50 states

And yes, “ We The People,”

Have the right to be mad

But when shit hits the fan

You have no right to talk bad

When we blindly fight each other

Instead of coming together

Losing track of valued morals:

Freedom, Peace, and Love Forever

We fed the mouth of arrogance

And starved the brave benevolence

Ignoring clear messages from heaven above

That we cannot build walls and still preach about love

America may meet its end

The more we drop bombs

On the voices who need us

To withstand the deeds of wrong

Our Fathers built this nation

To withstand this wrong power

But our power do I fear

When we get down to the hour

We stand at a crossroad

Go the road less traveled

For irration is the curse

That could lead us to the battle
