The Brave Us

America as we know it,

is free and brave.

It started with all americans

living in caves.

People were born,

buildings were built.

From Adam and Eve to babies in quilts.

One blink of the eye,

one hand in the air,

Let's people know that America will always be fair.

Elected officials are Americans too.

Be it telling a lie,

or what they are speaking is true.

Yet, somehow racism always has the lead.

A simple democracy that dropped us to our knees.

A cry for freedom, a hand in the air,

a baby being born, a predjudice stare.

America why me?

I thought all were free.

Wasn't this the reason,

God shed his grace on thee?
