America

Red and white and blue

Stars and stripes and eagles, too.

Root beer and popsicles, hamburgers, galore.

A place with choice and opportunity for more.

Full of greatness and laughter,

Filled with goals, and more for after.

But how can this be?

A place that's perfect without fee?

No, because all that's good comes with a price.

And to get this paradise,

we send our neighbors, family, and friends

To a place where the darkness never ends.

So we stand and salute

those who give so much so we can take root

in a land that we love

where the limit isn't even the sky above.

So put your hand over your heart, 

Praise the brave and do your part.

Because if you won't put your life on the line, 

Don't you dare stomp on that flag of mine!
