i breathed in america letting the nation erode my lungs my air became as clear as liberty and my posture echoed stature i let america engulf my lungs she breathed for me
as i engaged myself with the country she began to embrace my body moving my arms, walking my legs i let it’s peaceful stride carry on every step i took began with equality and ended with bravery a nation and her civilian what a bond, they always say
but then something seemed off i couldn’t understand america or what she wanted america turned left when i wished right my ears began to bleed every time i listen to preachers but they were fine when it came to politics america the country stuck her claws into my heart turned my blood into oil then i lost control
under the wrapper that read ‘america’ there lay something daunting balletically roaming around with its profound malevolence snickering as it held the chains of the people crying, screaming
who knew what what it could do, the land of the free and the home of the brave?
mopping our blood with star spangled rags i then exhaled my freedom
