Your President


I live in America I expect to be free,

but I'm black so I can expect KKK members to say they hate me.

I live in America, so I expect to feel safe

but I have friends that are mexican and people are scared because "They rape".

I live in America, so I expect to be proud

but I still have to shout

"BLACK LIVES MATTER!" and support immmigrants and LGBTQ communities

and do it proud!

Your president has no respect

and it has to change,

I want somone who really loves America

and not for the fame.
