A Place
America the land of the free and the home of the brave.
A place where opportunities considered the rave.
A place where Society complains about who you love and what's their names.
A place where police walk away with no convictions all because "he looked suspicious".
A place where the leader of the Free World has no moral standards,
Where people swear it's just funny Slander.
A place where Native Americans have always been
has turned into an us-versus-them.
A place where I fear to go to school,
but if I don't I'm considered a fool.
A place where teenagers and minorities fight for their rights,
Only to be criticized about issues they bring to light
A place I call home when every time I see a plane,
I look for breaking news on my phone America the land of the red white and blue,
and the home of people who just don't know what to do
