National pride is a mystery to me
You see
Claiming you're a child of the earth
Yet clinging to your land of birth
Better yet, feeling proud for something you haven't achieved
and hailing for beliefs that are misconceived
You crave a sense of belonging
but you're blind to what your pride might bring

You couldn't have said it better. Sometimes patriotic pride is stupid. First of all, what your ancestors achieved is not what you achieved; so pride for having a good history or country does not make any sense. Secondly, as you said, we are children of the Earth. We should not celebrate our nation thriving over the pain and struggle of others; we should be more united.
