A thought on the current state of the world and country.
      With each generation that populates this earth corruption destroys it's heart.
                    We walk around with the conception that we are master,
            better than the previous.  Yet we fail to live with as much integrity.
  In a country where we claim to be free...we are slave to the jobs we place on ourself.
  We fought to become our own country because of the idea of taxes being unbearable.
                    Now we have fifty times the amount we ever did back then.
                      We claim to have the best medical care in the world.
                                      Yet no one can afford it.
  With each generation the greed for money rots away what's left of our collective heart.
                With each generation we tend to care less and less about each other                                                         
                                    and more about the almighty dollar. 
                            Where are we to be a hundred years from now?
                                                    Will we survive?
                            Will humanity realize it only has one race?
