Historical Outlaws
Historical Outlaws
What, are you talking about?
I am saying that we have a past.
It is full of guns, and law,
and law breakers.
It is full of heroes and villains
and homemakers.
We are America(s).
We stand up,
we do not sit down.
We kneel for God,
and rise to defeat
injustice.
The base of our life,
a collection of men,
full of ideas, for a better world.
One that would incorporate,
all people of the land,
America.
Freedom.
Your skin color
does not matter.
Your are not,
African,
Asian,
Indian,
Or Indian…
Irish or “white” (what ever that means)
The census calls.
Write down the truth.
Make it real, tell it to all.
You, yes you…
and you and you and you.
I am, we are, all of US…
The USA.
Citizens of a country,
That proclaims freedom
more important than death.
