Happy 4th of July weekend 

FLAGS

A piece of fabric
Quadrilateral
A Quasi symbolized representation for battle
Wave it at them, when you win
Waving at them in the wind
In the end , if you lose, wave the white one
The right one 
Cuz white is always right huh? 
Red white and blue
That’s the one we like huh?
But when they flag flew 
Make you wanna fight huh?
That’s a red flag
blood stained banner
Star spangled or scar spangled 
Right hand over your heart but from the wrong angle
Look like we all been strung along and dangled
Hanged 
Half mass
Even our hate is half ass
Got half asked
Do our people even care?
Gave proof through the night that that flag was still there
Proof through the fight that hate is still in the air.
Patriotism or Pain show me the proof
From the Hazards of Dukes to Dylann Roof
Yo I Know I’m talking Dope but I’m Dealing Truth
So no matter which way you or your sexuality go
Or how your freak flag flow
Just know we won’t let you fly alone
Tandem
Just hold on as long as you can though
Because I love seeing the rainbows over Orlando
But what I can’t stand though
Is the artificial propaganda
Demanding that Americans turn against their fellow man
And start flag banging over gang colors
Red or Blue, Republicans, Democrats, White or Black, Who Are You? 
And who do you pledge allegiance to?
CNN, Huffington or Fox News
We all listen to hypocrites
Difference is we can change the channel if we choose
Some places on the planet are programmed to lose
So I wouldn’t want to walk nowhere without my American shoes
Proud to be a Boss that’s Born in the USA like Bruce Springsteen
We’ve seen the Stars and Stripes, Tried and True
Three Cheers for the Red, White and Blue
But we always knew it’s not the color of my flag 
but the content of my country’s character
So whosoever is delighted in solitude
Ooh, Martin Luther and Plato proves
We gotta to live together as Brothers or Perish together as Fools.
