Divided or United?

United States of America
Divided States of America
We are supposed to unite in times of worry
But instead we divide and die
We are supposed to unite and be on one side
But instead we divide and take sides
We are supposed to shake hands and move on when we disagree
But instead we fight and die
We are supposed to be judged by the content of our character
But instead we are judged by the color of our skin
We are supposed to not let the media split us in half
But that has already been done
We started United but now we are divided
United States of America
Divided States of America
