Lady Liberty Is a Whore
Speaking loud for your right
Please remeber how to put up a bloody fight
We see the many things in our community that makes us ill
Taxes, healthcare and pedophiles that kill
Should we quiet down in our anger
Surrender to the topics that leave us in danger
I spoke aloud and was shushed by a crowd
They didn't understand, But silence keeps me loud
My words are that of ficition
But I speak with confidence and diction
Unity sadly will never stand
But I do believe we will all join in our hands
To hold and declare what is rightfully ours
The independence formed of the fifty stars
This country wouldn't exist without us
So stop the analytical hypotheticals and began to trust
Some of us helped establish this property we live in
Some of us helped grow the contradictions of American with sin
This isn't patriotic so don't even ask
It's just that I choose to unveil the mask
We have so long hid from truth and dwelled in lies
It's time we stopped living in denial and let it die
From the melting pots of each state we stir
May our ethnicity began to keep us warm like a fur
Warming the skin from the backlashings of hurt
I command us all to bury those sterotypes and watch them burn
Gather around the flame and breath in smoke
Please don't worry about third degree metaphorical burns, you won't choke
As I end this very poem in inspiration
Let us mark the new begginings of a even more powerful generation
