I don't love America because of its democracy.
I don't love America because of its free economy.
I don't love America because of its strong military.
I don't love America because of its great inventions.

I don't love America because I can get my free stuff.
I don't love America because we care for one another.
I don't love America because I can make a ton of money.

always standing, never caving,
sometimes talking, always walking,
ever seeking, promise keeping,
UNITED PEOPLE once again.

From black to white,
from deaf to dumb,
E PLURIBUS UNUM.
