I am an American
I owe you no apologies nor will I accept those apologies made for me by others.
If you dislike me—you dislike me not for What I am but for what you are not. By my own sweat, I have created a lifestyle which I desire for all men.
To the world I have shared my wealth and given my blood, not because of obligation—but by my free will. I have fed the hungry of the world. Many bit my hand; I used the other hand.
I defeated my enemies in battle, then pulled them up from the ashes of defeat. Once strong, they again attacked; I turned the other cheek. Though I am strong, I have never used my strength to rule others. But do not misjudge me, I will not allow the fear of my own strength to become my weakness.
If you wish to rise, I will give you a helping hand. But by the grace of God, and I'll first be damned, if I'll let you drag me down so that we may be equal.
