We Are All Different. We Are One.

We are oppressed

Our thoughts are a sin

We escape the tournment of monarchy

Independence, we are one, we grow, Americans

We are oppressed

Red skins, thrown from our homes, killed by the hundreds

Preserverance, we are strong, we live, Native American

We are oppressed

The color of our skin is a sin, sold, beaten, worked to the bone

Hope is alive, it never died and now equality is the norm, African American

We are American

We never give up, we fight for our rights

Hope Liberty and the Pursuit of Happines
