I have to give it to them, my people have evolved
But all the time I've been alive I've only seen 'em devolve
I mean we've improoved - some even celebrate gay day!
And yet here we are, still waiting for pay day
My mom, my dad, my brother, sister and friends
They keep working 12/7 but it never ends!
All we want is a slice of that American pie,
But then comes the tought of workin' 'till we die
When you're in this state you can only try
Try, fail, try again not to break down and cry
And even if you get there, you gotta ask yourself "why?"
Why are people doing this to themselves?
Do they want tourment?
Well that's not how deep it delves
When you're in a place like this
A place you'd never miss
If you somehow managed to leave
It would take a while to inweave
The American lifestyle into your mind
'Til then you're basically running around blind
So welcome to the land of the free
You'll have to fight for a peace of bread
Until you can properly pay your fee
You can't? Well then fight till you're dead
You don't matter if you haven't got the greens
Try to make your pocket heavy by all means
You start selling everything you have to anybody
Anybody with cash, 'till all you have is your body
Let's hope it's a good one-if so-you got more to sell
Giving your dignity's no biggie under the green spell
And once you're stipped of all pride
And you think you can finally provide
The greens can't fill the empty hole
Where there once was a naive soul
Tempted by the red, white and blue
You wasted all for nothing, so what to do?
Now you can just break down and cry
Enjoy your slice of the American pie.
-The end-
-This is kind of true to my country. Okay, VERY true. So I was more passionate when writing this. I hope things get better.
