Americans

Let's sit back, relax And all count out the cost As the initial wave of shock Wears itself thinly off One side had to win While the other side sadly saw The beginning of the end In what is now their loss But aren't we still Americans When all of this is said Some voted with their hearts While others with their heads No need to roll over And wish that you were dead With history in the making We've all gone through worse than this While a select see a set back To others it's a gain What may have come as a flood To some it's needed rain True a few must lose For another cause to win But when it comes down to it all Aren't we still all Americans
