America

America is great but why do they hate when it comes to racism and the blacks who are in our states? Black or white does it matter can’t we get along or will it take a little bit longer? Violence is wrong don’t you see we look at each other but we are all free, no matter what we are all one, united together or are we all done? Looking back it has gotten worse, we all know why but do we really need this much pride? Black or white we are all people mix it up but we are all equal, no matter what we are here ready to fight is it all clear? Why do we look back wondering why your child is locked up and you are ready to cry? Killing police officers as they fight don’t you get it this is not right? They do their best to keep us safe but when guns are popping and people stay and hate. They fear for their safety every day, but they continue to protect us as we sit there play, they protect our families our children too but we sit there and kill them while you end up on the news. Right or wrong you are done, a second chance you will have no one. Giving up on your dreams is wrong enough keep moving and you will have some luck. The American People fight for their rights but does it matter if we are lowering at new heights? Waiting for change don’t you see America is here but not for free, immigrants killing others in our states aren’t you happy you made that mistake? Running away will not help us America is in danger did it get built up? We fight for our people but is that why we are getting nowhere and so many people are wondering why? Moving on with the military troops haven’t you gotten enough proof? They are homeless when they return don’t you see America is a place where they need to be set free… not on the streets or in the alley but in a home with their family who they need. They have no money and no place to go you can thank Obama he has set that road. A path to destruction has already arrived can you image all the pride? America is great but why all this, the people are one but what have we missed? Fighting a war we continue to this day will not help everyone please sit down and pray. No matter what we have our thoughts fighting over them will never stop. Agree or not America is one let’s stand up and come together one-by-one.
