Love is a Verb

God Bless America

Picture
God Bless America
The home of the free white man.
The place where a black man’s life is not worth $20.
And black youth dare not walk alone.

God Bless America
The stolen land of the greedy.
Where Native women disappear and traffickers need not fear.
For that taken life holds no value or price.

God Bless America
The unguided times, as green flags of money love fly.
Where bigots roam where buffalo used to be.
This is the land of the free.

God Bless America
Where children go hungry and elders die alone.
Where crooked politicians reign unchained
and claim evil as good.

Where a man's life is taken in broad daylight
as passersby still hold hope to a dream.
But $20 can't buy that dream anymore.
God Bless America.
