Soul of America

Shut down effects all
No matter what class we are
Families are being scorned
Hard-workers being left unpaid
While one sits on his throne above
Whining about a stupid wall
Giving mcdonalds to football teams
As your people lie suffering below

You are nothing but a tyrant
Who cares not for the people
You keep secrets from the world
That you have locked away
You have secret deals
With those in the shadows
You have no right to take
The money from your people
Who use their finances
To support themselves

Government workers
Armies and Marines
Hardworking citizens
They slave away
They save away
To support their families and themselves
They actually do their job right
They do their job the best they can
But how are they to keep going
If you keep taking from them

How much longer
Must you make us suffer
Under your iron fist
While you throw tantrums
About a dumb wall
Your a poison to this country
Everything you touch
You watch wither and die
Is that what you want for us?
Do you wish to see us crumble and fall?

Your wrong that we are fragile beings
For we of the United States of America
We the citizens that reside in this country
We have the strength and courage 
That dwell within us all
To band together as one
No matter where were from
Who we were before

Together we shall rise against tyranny
We shall make our voices known
For together were a force
Much powerful than a hurricane
We are human beings with souls
We are people with feelings
We will no longer stand
For a heartless king to rule us
It's time to revolt

Revolt against the lies
Revolt against the corrupted
Revolt against the wrong-doings
Of this no good hack 
That we wrongly chose as President
Revolt for your families
Revolt for your friends
Revolt for the future
For if he keeps ruling
There will be no future at all
