How can you hate me
You don’t even know me
Yet you want to destroy me
And my children too
You stand on you’re soapbox
And spit out your poison
Just because my countries’ flag
Is the red, white and blue
How can you judge me?
When you’ve never met me
You don’t know my politics
My feelings, my views
You just rant and you rage
Bout the whole of my race
Just because my countries flag
Is the red, white and blue
Now I ain’t the same as you
And there’s nothing bout that i can do
Now you ain’t the same as i
But that don’t mean
That I want you to die
You can’t despise me
Curse or criticize me
My life is my life
It’s got nothing to do with you
And just because i live here
It don’t mean i believe in
The guns, god and government
Of the red, white and blue x3
