Is Liberty and Justice For All

For years they live in shadow For years they've been mistreated For years they've been ignored and pushed aside Black sheep of the family Blamed for everything From the broken window to the last place in line Who is to care? Seems no one As long as nothing is broken Nothing needs to fix Who is to say we are perfect? Yet we don't realize the growing malignant malady Oh America you are supposed to be the beacon of the world Yet you fall so You seem deaf to the voice within The voice of reason You seem to make up your mind on certain things and not see the obvious What caused you to be the judge? Or are you now a juror? Say bypass Minds all made up Fine You will see once and for all Who is the juror and who is the judge None of thee God does not make anything imperfect Yet you continue to insist it is Time to owe up to our mistake And let our Ruler to be the judge Time is a wasting Can't afford to lose it Time is the essence Let's not be blowing it Time is unknown Let's not misspending it You can do it You can correct it And make it right!!
