Oh Great America

Oh Great America

 

Restoration is the key to the future;

Not revolution.

We are a country formed through rebellion.

Enough is enough.

Fix the problems you hold within.

Gather your children

Oh Great America.

 

Open the minds of your descendants,

Calm your peoples’ inner quarrels,

Protect your citizens from one another,

Gather you children

Oh Great America.

 

Our country cannot thrive on bloodshed.

We are a meant to be a Union,

One nation under God.

But does racism,

Sexism

And Intolerance scream freedom?

Gather your children

Oh Great America.

 

My dreams are filled of freedom,

Where my brothers and sisters succeed.

We may not know the future,

But I pray America blesses her kin.

Embracing their adolescent knowledge

Gather your children

Oh Great America.
