I am America
One born free
American in my raise
Living in a country where so many wish to be

I am America
With house family and education
Democracy through and through
Where so many are able to be dreamin’

But I am also America
When treated inequally
Women, the black and gay
White men claim to be better than me

I am America
The country where we starve
Where if you’re not perfect you’re less human
Everyone fighting for their brother’s love

This is America
Free and opportunity
Inequality and poor
All lead by our chosen successful democracy

I am America
