Lady Liberty (revised)

Grasshopper

I pledge allegiance
to the flags
of the North American union
Into the Republics
for which they once stood
One Nation
Above God
With Liberty
and justice
for some

I watched the structure slowly fall apart
I watched the steel beam fall straight throuh her heart
Lady Liberty
throw down your chains
Lady Liberty
Show no restraint

I watched the world collapse in a mountain of ash
I watched the world relapse for mountains of cash
Lady Liberty
throw down your chains
Lady Liberty
Show no restraint

I watch the new world slowly unfold
I watch the wisdom die with the old
Lady Liberty
throw down your chains
Lady Liberty
Show no restraint


I watch the hour glass spin on its axis
I watch the happy smile and pay taxes
Lady Liberty
throw down your chains
Lady Liberty
Show no restraint

Cause it takes oceans of strength to stand still
above the storm that's melting our will.
lady liberty...
throw down your chains
You walk with a limp and a fat hurricane
cause you have oceans of strength to stand still
above the storm that's melting out will

lady liberty
Lady Liberty
LADY LIBERTY

I like what you added at the beginning. Is that part going to be a spoken word intro? that's just how I "heard" it as I read it.
