America; My Mother Land
No ill words of disrespect shall part my lips about my mother
For her land has raised me well
Her morals carved in my soul
But yet I hope
Not just for me for I am one
I hope for my siblings to come
That one day my mother can learn
To match the actions she takes with her words
And on such day equality won’t be explained books
But in the action of every soul
Where my mother’s caretaker's aren't swayed by cash
And honesty isn’t hid behind a curtain.
Where the children don’t point and blame
But shape the world together
Where life is full of happiness
And young don’t know the taste of hunger nor hate
Still all are far from real
And perhaps my wish isn’t meant to be
But be as it may I’m lucky to live on this land
Born in a home where the future is mine
