how can we surrender
if there is no war
only red and blue
president's floor
he's afraid of white
it's too pure
hero's must fight
seeking more
to conquer
neighbor's flags
when we're
dressed in rags
much to conquer
within
seek the flag
of our soul
that white flag
refuse to surrender
to ourselves
stop waving flags
of distraction
from the bags
we carry
the red
in America's face
unfed
afraid to lose our place
unwed
running a solo race
ahead
of peace doves pace
the blue
in America's face
shopping to do
gown of lace
rich sue
put poor in a vase
farmers grew
grain waits in a case
innocence flew
time to chase
God on cue
sins erase
the white
in America's face
soiled
with fear
too spoiled
to hear
the boiled
cheer
that's foiled
in each peer
America's loyaled
know this is the year
to surrender
to the war
in our soul
our flag that's pure
white is in
the stars and stripes
why red
why blue
