You never really understand the world

Until you travel and experience

As much of it as possible. You could

 

Not possibly understand the grand growth

Of their cultures, speeches and of their stance

Against the rest of us, for the race's health.

 

There isn't much you could see and do in

Your town in American ignorance.

Stuck in yourself, commiting the same sins

As your forebearers, never given chance.

 

Never given a chance to change or thrive

As the true being you could be. I know this.

So get up and move away from your hive,

Away from the hatred, the shame, the stress.
