True, Through and Through

I battle cry to the sun
the cops just killed someone
my anger building up
mask cover the ones who care
too many who don't
not sheep, but not caring human beings ether
and then my thoughts go to
how this country is better than this

my country 'tis of thee
flaws and all
seems we been braught to our knees
I can't help but believe
we will fight till things are right
this is what drives us
not the stupid and racist
they are the deface
hiding behind liberties grace

the America I know
it's a heart that never stops loving
getting together to ask how we are
bastardizing culture
and somehow making something beautiful
waving our flag that covers the troops
the ones who fought for freedom
didn't matter to them political affiliation

I'm proud to be part of the world's melting pot
some may like that and some may not
but I am red, white and blue
true, through and through
a debt I owe for the ones that gave their lives
who flew the flag of greater dreams
never see me fly one of traitors
slowly we turn the tide
because this country is bigger than it's problems
