America's Nature

A mountain is defined by its peaks and valleys 

See for yourself the tallies 

Tallies of the valley we find ourselves in 

Each time hate seems to win  

Nature is known as a phenomenon of landscape 

Yet too often now we see it get into a scrape 

We need a wave of gratitude  

Of those who made it possible to end the feud 

The feud between governmental freedom and captivity

Gratitude towards those who made it past the acclivity 

We need an ocean of compassion 

For those who have lost their hope and gained dispassion 

We need a cloud to rain the waters of truth 

So that the old can show the value of honesty to today’s youth 

We need a sandbar of human dignity 

Where every grain of sand represents you and me 

We need a tsunami of love that destroys every hate in it’s way   

So it’s unthinkable to let abominations stay  

We need the great plains of freedom 

For every soul who says they need ‘em 

We need a mountain where the peaks reign as the valleys cave  

In the land of the free and home of the brave
