America, the land of the free it's more like the land of apologies This world would rather move on then stop to see what makes one cry The news would rather show you how many people died last night than to recognize a person that's still alive But when I go I want to be remembered not as another number but as another answer As I'm alive, I want everyone to know I'm trying very hard trying not to let go I have to stand strong just not for me but for all the people and all my beliefs This society will never learn that it can't get the best of me I'll be gone way before they can even get a piece of me Sometimes I think God's against my philosophy All I want from Him is a peaceful community and the rest will come naturally.
Reason for writing:
I see all the bullsh*t that goes on each day in this society, and I'm just tired of seeing it. The only way I get things off my chest is to write, so I wrote Sum of Society. http://www.geocities.com/amarte01/
