Pride
Unemployment, discrimination, protests, distress
All this from a single look at your phone
Politicians' tounges always in a fierce game of chess
One side speaks and a million points to the contrary are shown
All of this tension, the American dream must be dead
While plausible, I think otherwise
My immigrant parents first nights here were spent without a bed
The thought of prosperity never left their eyes
Through hard work they made a living and some
They helped give my siblings and I a better life
This type of convienence could not be enjoyed where they were from
Only in the land of the free can they more than suffice
Yes, a democracy can't be perfect
Theres a lot to work on but the pride one must never forget
