The Land of the Free

Here we are living in the Land of the Free,
Where we claim to have all we could ever need.
Yet we struggle with the choice that we made.
Who is our leader and what's he going to take-
From us?

We have our tea parties,
And walk the city streets,
With our SIGNS held high!
Banners wavin' in the sky!
Yelling, everything except,
"Crucify!"

Don't we know that we are part of this?
We are not innocent.
We took that stimulus check without a second thought.
Let your mind wander now through all that you bought,
Or have you forgot-ten--
There is good that has come of this too?

We put so much focus on what's gone wrong,
The health care reform and the list that's long-
And goes on and on and on.

But when are we going to wake up and realize,
That we are just hypocrites in disguise,
Hiding behind our political views?
Have you thought what it'd be like to walk in his shoes?

Leading a country that boasts freedom of choice,
But won't have a voice-
When it comes to supporting our leader.

Maybe it's time that we all unify,
Not on what's gone wrong,
But on what's gone right.
Standing up as a country of one,
Winning the battle before it's even begun,
-Or is that too much to ask?

Of people who live in the Land of the Free...
