The USA is our wayward child,
Conceived in love for all people,
Growing up feral and wild,
Far from the parents vision,
The USA is our wayward child,
It has done some wrong,
Hurt those it should have protected,
Stole from the original residents,
The USA is our wayward child,
But it is still deserving of love,
But also discipline to grow strong and true,
To become what it is meant to be,
The USA is our wayward child,
It is up to us to teach it right from wrong,
To guide it with love and care,
And ensure that it survives.
