America

A Statue of Liberty stands despite growing pains Morning welcomes bird feces and political gain Every heart who seeks new start new chance Rarely knows the ills of the underdog dance Is it still the land of the free Can you become rich and famous and have peace Are you willing to sacrifice your beliefs for dreams

Who needs famous? Give me rich anytime. NO, I take that back. Give me the chance to work hard to become rich. That's all I ask. And that's definitely possible here, though there are bound to be tough setbacks along the way... ~ gw
