Oh America<\/p>\n
You wonder, you<\/p>\n
The Land of all the Free<\/p>\n
(So long as you\u2019re born all of<\/p>\n
Straight, cis, white and he)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We pledge allegiance<\/p>\n
To the bones<\/p>\n
We pledge to all the fallen<\/p>\n
We the people pledge<\/p>\n
To avenge who you\u2019ve forgotten<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
For today<\/p>\n
We woke up barren<\/p>\n
Woke up stripped and beaten backwards<\/p>\n
We watched the world we knew before<\/p>\n
Be overcome with fractures<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You set<\/p>\n
A slippery slope in motion<\/p>\n
Allow us to strike a match<\/p>\n
At this point we can throw<\/p>\n
The goddamn country down the hatch<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
How dare you<\/p>\n
Oh my country<\/p>\n
Oh my country \u2018tis of thee<\/p>\n
How dare you take my right to choose<\/p>\n
And claim it was for me<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The depths<\/p>\n
That we have fallen<\/p>\n
Have us teetered on the edge<\/p>\n
Of civil war, of flames and forks<\/p>\n
