The Land of Fear
(This poem is about immigrants from all over the world..and my experience living both an American and Mexican life)
All across the world and in this nation there live individuals living in fear,I ask myself "Why do they hunt us?" and "Why do they want us out of here"?
And why?! Is this the land of fear?
And why?!Do I always sense the end is near?!!
A long time ago I crossed this nation to fullfill my destiny to manifest
I made blue prints of their customs and successfully their cultures I mimicked and maped
Just to find out that It was a planned trap..just to find out that they would attack
They struck in the midnight morning..I should of known they would betray me as soon
as I turned my back
Why do I sense the end is near?!
Why do I have to live in this land in fear?!
Why do I sense the end is near?!
And why can't I live my life in peace right here?!!
I'll take this..this land of fear..
I'll take this..this land of fear..
And why must I obey the ones that betrayed???
Why must I obey the ones that betrayed??...me??!!!
I'll take this land of fear!!!
I'll take this land of fear!!!
I'll take this land that betrayed me!!!!
