Killing Our Last Breath
Living in fear
Each and Everyday
Of Stepping outside
Or kneeling to Pray
Our forefather’s built this nation
On Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness
“Our broad stripes and bright stars”
Have persevered through
“The Rocket’s red glare
And the Bomb’s bursting in air”
Through it all our nation stood still
Now the land of the free and home of the brave
Has become land of the tears and home of the scared
We can no longer hold our heads high
While our young generations die
And “thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand”
We can proudly smile hand in hand
From the massacres to the lonely deaths
Shootings are killing
Killing our last breath
To persevere in the coming years
We must revolutionize and rebegin
To rebuild our failing nation
From gun control
To planned parenthood
And everything in between
We must rethink
Everything.
Let this be our motto: “In God is our trust”
“And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!”
