Allegiance I am the land of the free. This is my first confession. I will confess, but not apologize For two hundred years of oppression. I am America. I am hypocrisy. I am intolerance. I am the land of the free. My creation, born from the blood of the Sioux, My censorship of what is true, My endorsement of money and greed; My persecution continued once the slaves were freed. I've killed so many, yet I say it's wrong to kill. All are free, but slaves remain still. I promote the right to privacy, Yet I broadcast people's lives for all to see.
