\nof appearing as something i am not
\nalive and well for all citizens of US of A
\nand whomsoever we profess to protect
\naround the world take me around the world
\nas you have done before
\nnow stand and face your foes
\nnow stand and face your partner
\ntortured truth is black not white
\nit is not the tail wagging the dog
\nit is our torch wagging
\nLady Liberty turned on her head
\nturn around don’t drown.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
