05
The green fields of America leave me stranded
Chasing after a life I can not manage
With the aspirations too high to climb
I’m left in a loop, a circle, a pie
Of uncertainty of the future to come
With unfulfilled promises from the ton
I receive small emoluments
From masters who earn the country’s wages
As the land is embarking on stages
Stages of torment, destruction, starvation
Disregarding our proclamation
Erasing history and invoking material change
For their benefit, for their gain
As we are left searching for scraps
In a country that relabels our maps
Working for the one that controls
On land, on soil, they stole.
