Not My President
Not My President by Bianca Gonzalez
1 Dear Mr President
2 Don’t be startled by my last name, I’m a legal resident
3 It’s 2017 but in many ways it feels like 1967
4 A nation divided, parties undecided,
5 families are frightened and women feel violated
6 Dear Commander in Chief,
7 You treat women like they’re no more than a slice of meat
8 Speaking about Muslim Bans and building walls-
9 That’s NOT equality
10 You can’t relate, or debate,
11You manipulate and make jokes about rape.
12 Daddy gave you a million dollars to start your business
13You’re a successful man and brag about your riches
14But yet your tax information must bear no witness
15You don’t care about the people, los ninos
16You’re just worried about your gringos, not us latinos
17 You’re all about you, not this USA
18You swear you’re not racist
19 But you’re still filled with hate
20 Dear Mr. Trump
21 I woke up the other morning to a mosque in Texas being burned to the ground
22 Are you proud of you now?
23 Be careful citizens, he’s dividing the nation!
24 “Your scarf offends me, let’s put you in a campground”
25 Yet I’ve found, he’s convincing our own people, all criminals are brown
26 The streets flooding with hate and greed
27 I’m unsure whether to stay or leave
28 Because this is my home
29 It doesn’t have gold trimming, or white cylinder posts
30 I didn't grow up swimming in wealth
31 I grew up living poor
32 While we lacked in fortune, we made up in character
33 To be honest it’s these kind of people that make up America!
34 If it’s wasn’t your idea, get rid with it
35 Honestly you’re crazier than that dude from split
36 I doubt you’ll ever admit
37 This was just a gimmick
38 You were never fit, to be my President!
39 Every time I flip past the news channel they mention “President Donald Trump”
40 It freaks me for a second
41 I swear that’s got to be wrong
42 Make A Change, Si Se Puede
43 Yo Come back Mr. Obama
44 If you let this dude stay, what’ll happened to Ohana?
45 Dear Mr. Dictator
46 If it were up to you I know you’d create a new genocide;
47 you mass exterminator
48 But don’t think you’ll ever win my friend
49 Because there’s one of you in the end.
50 This country is filled with activists, lovers and demonstrators
51 Legislators and investigators and plenty other regulators
52 But until I see peace in the middle east
53 And not your “Banned” signs in our streets
54 We will not stand at ease
55 Until this nation is free
56 From your deceit, your greed and everything else inbetween
57 Until the history books will say impeached
58 I will speak my speech
59 You are not my president
60 You’ll never be to me
