What has our country come to?
A gun shot here a gun shot there.
Why do we bombard these strangers,
with our hate and with our dangers.
They say freedom was never free,
but I wish the world could see,
that’s not how it has to be.

Our lands are separated by the seven seas,
so lets leave each other be.
They have their land,
we have ours.
Why spend countless hours
gunning them down with torturous powers?

Grab the hourglass of our history
and tip it upside down.
We can undo
what has been done,
cause we are united.
United, as the states of America
