A new Anthem

Oh say can you see, 
That we’re not really free
Until no citizen 
Is still met with aggression

From conception through death, 
Let us use all of our breath
To renounce our divides 
And build up our connections.

Then the sacrifice made
By our ancestors brave
Will not be obscured.
For equality we must implore

We must stand resolutely 
To demand a more perfect unity
For this land to be free, 
we must all become brave.
