I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of Shit.
Some cop just knocked my lights out,
Somebody stole my dog.
Some goverment raped my family,
Somebody took my rights away.
America, look me in the eyes.
Tell me why,
Tell me why my pride has died.
I bet you can't,
and I'll tell you why.
Too busy washing out my brothers mind.
Just another nation built on top of lies.
Somebody stole my dog.
Some goverment raped my family,
Somebody took my rights away.
America, look me in the eyes.
Tell me why,
Tell me why my pride has died.
I bet you can't,
and I'll tell you why.
Too busy washing out my brothers mind.
Just another nation built on top of lies.

This poem stayed in my head long after I was done reading it. The first line was great-in your face no bullshit.
