The Great Experiment
America the brave
Stands proud and tall,,
From sea to shining sea
We can get through it all,
When they first came
It was all just a dream,
A hope to start anew,
In a land that many did not believe,
But yet, they persevered
Through hardship and crisis,
The union stood affirmed
Through all events of malice
In this country’s lifetime,
We have seen it all,
From wars to depressions,
And even from our own capitol.
Yes, we are not perfect,
To be honest, we’re far from that sea
This country was always a mess
But because we are still experimenting
You see, experiments dont always go as planned
You will always make mistakes
You will try and try again,
And still be improving all the time
This country is a living, breathing experiment,
We are always making it better
As time goes by, day to day,
A new result will show
So why do you think,
From 2016 and above,
Would anyone say,
That this country was never great at all?
Because to be honest,
We were never great from the start
We are a big, Great experiment
That’ll keep on going way far
The question is: How far are we willing to go?
