America
A place of contradictions
A place where some are free but others
Seem to just want to be let be

America
Where any are allowed to practice what they want
Unless someone else doesnt like it
Then they are told Stop! or its a crime they commit

America
A place where equality has always been hard
For those who are "unnatural"
But all that those who are "normal" do
Is leave the "unnatural" scarred

America
Where someones race, sexuality, religion or gender
Defines who they are and what they are worth
Where prejudice is practiced and embraced
Where life is meaningless until birth

Welcome to America.
But Beware.
