Right To Choose
Election time is drawing near.
And political tension is high.
There is so much anger and fear.
Does anyone know the reason why?
We are a divided nation.
Hatred leads the way.
There is no explaination,
for where we are today.
Relationships have come to an end,
because of different political views.
We will turn our back on a friend,
for the candidate they will choose.
This country gave us the right to be free.
With the Constitution and Bill of Rights.
Are we so blind, that we can't see,
what flies above us, our stars and stripes?
We have the right to make our choice.
Then how can we deny another?
We all have the same voice,
Why do we hate our brother?
Being an American, is who we are,
but we need to come together.
This country has already come so far,
let what is right, lead us into forever.
