America

America Last night I heard America cry…and it was the sound of woman Birthing children into a society that is filled with despair And their tears fell from heaven like rain And flooded everywhere Last night I heard America cry…and I felt it down in my soul Because millions of people are dying while AIDS Is out of control Last night I heard America cry…and it was on the nightly news They talked about missing children some murdered And some abused Last night I heard America cry…because her soldiers are dying Each day and families are losing loved ones To a war that does not pay These are the reasons why we must come together and wipe The tears from Americas eyes because if we don’t take The time to help her she will drown in her own demise Last night I heard America cry
