Melting Pot : America Freedom

Flames and fire are Devil’s friend, melting, melting till the end, conglomerate conformity Oh God have you abandoned thee? My freedom hand hits iron wall, I’m simmered in a hamster ball, running, running on worn out knee Oh God have you abandoned thee? My waxy self runs from the heat, alas, alas I have no feet, they’ve melted patriotically, Oh God have you abandoned thee? My colours blend unto a grey My past has just been wiped away Star spangled mediocrity Oh God have you abandoned thee? I gaze up high to see the rim pray, save us from this burning sin, free individuality, Oh God please don’t abandon thee!
