I'm Chaktaw, Chipawa & Cherokee
Spanish, Dutch & East Indies
Maybe African American
I Am An American

Dosen't matter if you are
Red, White or BLUE
FOR ALL THOSE MEN & WOMEN
WHO WENT TO FIGHT & DIE FOR YOU
They were all Americans
Living & diying for the right
To be an American

I'm Chaktaw, Chipawa & Cherokee
Spanish, Dutch & East Indies
Maybe African American
I'm An American

We are centuries old
In this melting ***
God gave us life
And we should not have forgot
We live in a nation that
Honors those before
As Americans we deplore
Hatred, Bigotry &
So much more

I Am Chaktaw, Chipawa & Cherokee
Spanish, Dutch & East Indie
Maybe African American
I Am An  American

Under a nation I was BORN, I am
No choice did I have
But here I am
The fruit of my FATHERS
I am an American
Born, Raised, Educated
A product of my society
I Am An American
After something my Aunt said," do you think your grandmother had some black in her" I AM AN AMERICAN< Doc

As a young man lies diying, fallen victm of mindless gangs
One more stagers the night layden with spirt of an acholic kind
As one more small child has lost thier trust to a sickned guardian
One more has ceased their life from mankind’s ability to starve

As one more women is forced to submit love she has not offered
One more is lost to the domestic hell of enraged beasts, called man
As one brave soldier falls to the sands giving his all for our freedom
One more crawls home to be forgotten, his disabilities seen as weak

I think to my self what a wonderful world

My country and your country....
I don’t know what's that.....
I just know it's our world...
So let's end up wars and fights...

Everyday people are diying.....
Oh! Chidlren are turing orphans and all are wailing and crying....
But what is the media and government trying...
Only they make two countries wars to be multiplied...


Is  it my India Or is it my Pakistan!

No one knows Diwali as Ali and Ramdam has Ram...
It's all what they know is to use their arms...
With money and muscle power polish up their charm...
But never know during their revolts thousands are harmed...



Is it my India Or is it my Pakistan.....
We have made to learn Pakistanis are bad...
But during-"All Indians are my brothers and sisters" I feel quite sad....
Leave for it we know once India and Pakistan were united.....
But seriously what was the reason for being divided....


Youth just open up your eyes...
I know it's a tough journey but we need to give it a try......
Only we can make the dead's families tears dry.....


Wake up now or you will lose.....
I know the only correct path you will choose....


At last let's bring back India and Pakistan in their correct order.....
And obliviate racism and borders.........

purfectual place this used to be
ahh alas twas ephemeral
as we divorced the queen
we had a few kings
then went quickly
from  presidents  to puppets
on the polepits
always the lesser of two evils
we have to vote in
or the one whom will make the greatest effort
to have you percieve they sling the cleanest mud
and the way we are viewed
like unto the episode where Elmer Fud finnaly kills the RABBIT
KILLS theWABBIT
KILLZ
THA
WABBIT
Then feels bad
doesnt know what to do with it and then sits and crys over it
rabbit comes back to life and Rubbs Elmers nose
it it
uncles gettin paranoid
afraid somethins wrong within
big brother bully
turnt his back on the enemy and currently playin puppetry with Johnny........ not appleseed
John Q public
I.E.
we the people or  are
me and you not gonna not cut the strings and remain hostile individuals
standing at a safe distance
in contempt
takin pride in
whether u are
democrat or
republican
as if thats where all this
turmoil comes from
and who recycles  or pays taxes
while we get fat
which i know is a p o v
while we dont see I to I Like we used to
our species is diying
and theres the question we all hide from if
Uncle sam is playin us like puppets
and the president is our main muppet
then we can probly see pullin his strings the real humdinger is whos the top puppet master
and for what or why
timers ticken tiger
better figgure it quick before we all loose our right hand

— The End —
