i WILL make a change


Does the President hate us? 
Saying we only come to America to cause a fuss
I see on the news the hate crimes towards people like me 
Risking it all to come to this country just to flee
My heart breaks as I think about those kids in the cages
Who have been separated from their families for ages 
Minorities being treated without justice 
We ask the question "Why do they not like us?"
People constantly argue if health care should be free
I fear we could be on the verge of World War Three
Our earth is quickly dying 
Our political leaders are experts in lying 
I have to do something 
Anything.
Give me a couple of years 
I will study the true nature of our government so much it will drive me to tears 
I am determined to work towards the correction of our country 
I hope to stand for something where the people will contently vote for me 
Working with other government officials for ALL Americans 
Believe me, I have a plan 
As I look around, I know it might seem strange 

But I promise, I Will make a change
