In a world of confrontation Nobody wants a discriminated nation Most of us wanna live as one And play together under the sun Soldiers in Iraq fighting for their lives Men back here beating their wives Is this the way our ancestors wanted it to be When they were fighting for their liberty We're supposed to live in a world of delight But because of 911 we're living in fright Why? We still don't have an answer Nor do we have a cure for cancer Kids, violence, gangs everywhere The parents do not seem to care People get kidnapped every day When they're in the front yard trying to play In a world 75% crime It wasn't hard to find things that rhyme Hate live Hawks dove Vietnam war, using napalm Why did we have to drop the a-bomb The government has done many things wrong I'm putting some of it in this song The people of America are really trying Through all the blood and all the crying Concerned countries Quiver quietly I ask why this has to be I wish the government could just see What American really felt But we have to deal with the cards we are dealt I'm gonna stop before I put you to sleep I am digging a hole that's way to deep Just remember the government is wrong That's why I'm writing this poem Living in a world of confrontation Nobody wants a discriminated nation
