It's Not That Great
So, you want to know what America wants to improve on?
Incarceration,
Violence,
Racial slurs
these are just a few to be named.
Land of the free?
I don't see anyone free from poverty
From financial struggles.
You want to tell me this country is great?
We have the most people incarcerated per capita.
We require protests for women to have rights over their own bodies.
As cis white men tell us that we were only made to reproduce.
We still fight 100 years later for black lives.
We still fight for women's rights.
This country isn't great.
We must start with who runs our country
Before we can change the people inside of it.
We need to teach that skin color does not determine someone's worth.
We must teach boys to respect girls.
We must enforce that consent is required.
Once we do this,
We will fix the 1% of America that isn't great.
