Where I'm From
I'm from the place where the sun is silent
Limbo, the first circle, that is where I'm from
Born in a place where I'm destined to die
That's where I'm from
In a place where beliefs divide us is where I'm from
From a place where segregation is still a problem,
not by race, but my morals
Prejudice is fed, while hatred is bled where I'm from
Where the people who fight for a change
for personal gain
Are just as bad as the people who do nothing
America is where I'm from
Where self-righteousness flows like champagne with falsehood claims
Yet my observations label me as heathen and degenerate
… America is where I'm from
