anyway

celebrating some sort
of independence
at what expense
guess I should be proud
forefathers with raised fists
against the crown
still what right
to evict the inhabitants
who’s to blame now
wouldn’t want to live
elsewhere
that’s not how
positive change is achieved
the kings don’t wear crowns
they wear suits and drive expensive cars
how much freedom do we

still have to celebrate…
