Pocahontas' Truth
Just around the riverbend,
The British are coming to cause their end;
From measles to the common cold,
The truth isn’t as cute as the story once told;
Pocahontas young and free
Found a man aged 33;
John Smith and his band of theives
Destroyed her home full of singing trees;
The colors of the wind have thinned...
Her land was stolen and people enslaved,
Far from the movie where her people were saved;
We were led to believe that her life was a dream,
But it was all an evil scheme...
