That is what has happened to the United States in the international economic scene. We have deteriorated into a debtor status so that we are now dependent upon the kindness of strangers. That is not where the world's leading power should find itself.

The World Divided
The world first is one
And then it’s divided
To explore the world
And search a better home
The world is divided
And then it united again
By the passion to conquer the world
And find forever glory
The world is united
And then it’s divided again
The rule of living is placed
And the game of power is played
The world is divided
And then it’s blurred
In the darkness of fate
And moral questioned
The world is united
And then it’s shattered
By the nature’s tragedy
And evolution selection
The world is divided
And it tries to be united again
To end meaningless war
And look for compromise peace
The world is united
And then it’s more divided
Of prejudice and pride
And the lust of money
The world is divided
And it’s waiting to be united again
By the dream of children
And the love in the heart

China Town Is Bigger Than Little Italy
In China Town it's the biggest thing around
now where is Little Italy to be found?
United States has made China great
Even in lower Manhattan today
China town is bigger than all countries I say.
Donald Trump says that US of A
has become the wimping post of China today.
I can see now how this statement sounds—
we have to bring back our country on even ground.
Currencies have been faked all across the globe
there is a lot out the American people don't know.
It all can be controlled with International trade
we need to start dictating how we play.
Bring United States back so we can compete
instead of being lead in this international parade.
