Because we are American


Not for me Not for you But for everyone For the right to power For eqality Of whites, blacks, women, men The right to say we are American These are our rights This makes us equal We can be employeed and fired To work To die To live Together Since 1866 We have the right Not just me Not just you But everyone Because we are American
