Hear Me America

As you can see America is filled with the "American Dream"

but the American Dream is usually described as everyone having

"equal opporunity to achieve success and prosperity."

But does this define our culture as being Americans?

America is suppose to be the motherland to all the minorities

Black, Asian, Hispanic, Indian, and many more to come

But instead of lifting up the minorities, we restrict the power of them to prospser.

Enduring pain since slavery to modern police brutality it's all the same

Being shackled to the government since the system is designed for the whitess to be superior

But Hear Me America we have to make a change for our younger generation

To lead  them in a better direction from all the negavitiy. 

What others see about America I don't. 

I see a place that has little hope

that is controlled by the government

that is poverty-strucken in some areas

that lacks in equality for all minorities

that lacks the rights we are bound to based on bias

We all want morals that will  hold up to our country name but

are people willing to make that change?
