A Citizen's Duty:

The story of America is a story best seen through the
eyes of its people. It is a story built on the idea
of freedom, through the common efforts of a nation
united. America, now over 200 years old,
is a country that is different from all others,
in that it offers equal opportunity to anyone,
regardless of gender, sexuality or race.
It is on this creed that the story of America was founded.

Unfortunately, that is all it is. A story.

Lies built on deceptions. A nation's history cloaked
in murder. The idea of a ruling class is still very
much with us. Ninety percent of all wealth is inherited
wealth. We may have lost the titles, but an aristocracy still flourishes.

Resist:

It is a citizen's duty to resist the system that pits
us against one another.

Refuse:

It is a citizen's duty to refuse to believe the fears
their media has implanted in us through sensationalized
and biased coverage.

Renounce:

It is a citizen's duty to renounce the idea of borders
and boundaries, as they strengthen their hold on us
by serving the dual purpose of separating us and therefore
dividing our strength. Burn their symbols.
And as they burn physically,
let them burn internally, a charred reminder of a nation
that could have been.

Burn.
This song is from the album "This Crying, This Screaming, My Voice Is Being Bor".
