Peace Or Not

We wish to live in peace 
How can it be so?
With guns and war
School shootings and rights taken 
Land of the free?
More like home of the oppressed. 
Claiming to be free
Without knowing freedom
Stop the lies 
Stop the hate
No more segregation 
We stand as one
Under our 
Red white and blue flag
Our symbol of freedom 
Is not free
