The Babble of an Unproud American
Why is it that America is so free?
When if you look inside we're all locked up like theives.
They say it's a pot with all melted in.
Then why must they seperate the whites from the bin.
I am Spanish American because of my skin.
Then there's an African American.
The one that makes the least sense.
Because if they are African American
(Though they've been here as long as the white)
Then why don't we say oh hello British American?
Born on this soil, yet I am ashamed
To say I am American,
is like saying I'm a scam.
Yo soy Dominicana, pura.
Where the Spanish settled
married some slaves
raped some tainos
and became my race
In Mexico the same happened leaving no white trace
Yet America gets the privalage of saying they are a mix too?
Just white mixes is really what they should say.
Spanish is here, black you stay there
As the white sit on there throne
In the kingdom of false care
Now I will admit theres reverse racism
and special treatment that is unfair
but we would never have needed it
if the white wouldn't have started.
Human nature I guess
to try and hate those for the past
and so i ask you how long will it last?
Till we all realize It started with Adam and Eve,
all sisters and brothers
fighters and lovers.
Yes your hair is blonde
and my skin tan
his eyes are hazel
and her hips big.
Yet we are all here
Not to burden another
but to try and understand
how a world can know so much
yet learn so little
and stay as such
where America the great
is seen as a place
to run to, jump the border swim as fast as you can
When the lies you were told
the mythes of an American Dream
Become exposed
as you work as a dishwasher
Wishing for your country once more.
