Dear Misguided Friends


You say

My accent's too heavy for you to comprehend me

My culture's too different for you to understand me

Your assumptions 

Corrupt me

Disgust me

As you try to construct my life

Brick by Brick

Let's seperate race, shall we?

By building walls between us 

As we stall the peace 

We can bring between us

Coating each brick with red, white, and blue

Justifying it is what Uncle Sam would've wanted us to do

Forget our history

Forget our past

Forget our ancestors who wiped your ass

They don't know better 

They don't understand

Let's make America great again

Kick out the Immigrants 

Make it quick

Before they found out they're not as different as they think

There's power in numbers 

And in numbers we stand against another

Oh God we're damned
