This Land Is Your Land

The message of this song is that America belongs to everyone. It was created for the people and although it is not perfect, its future is bright. At the beginning of the song America is portrayed as this great land with limited possibilities as said through "endless sky way". Positive words are associated with America such as "diamonds", "golden", "sparkling". However, towards the end there is a different feel to the song as it speaks of "hungry children" and "No Trespassing". This makes it known America is not perfect, but it is later realized that there is hope for a better country when the song is finished off with a sharp "This Land is made for you and Me", showing that is indeed the place to be.
