In God We Trust

In god we trust
By Asianae Aikey


Our country's leaders say we're living in the land of the free,
but it's never seemed that way to me.
Every day I see the consequences of inequality.

"In god we trust," hell no.

Humanity encompasses everyone
yet divided we stand and force others to be smaller.
In 74 countries, being gay is a sin.
All over the world
You may get made fun of for not being thin


"In god we trust," hell no.

They say trust in the lord for he is our savior
But what about those who you “good” people
Say will be damned to hell because we’re gay
When there has been homosexuality all throughout the world
And throughout history
Even in the bible there was a chance for homosexuality
And were they judged
NO

So "In god we trust," hell no.
