'We the People,' no truer words
Throughout our history
Has ever meant as much to us
In the Land of Liberty
'We the People,' in tyranny's demise
Brought forth Freedoms cry
Words of defiance, willfully spoke
For which we were willing to die
'We the People,' as North and South
Tore our country in two
Restitched the fabric of unity
As only a great people can do
'We the People,' as a world at war
Drew our young away
Affirmed to those who would rule us all
Not here, not now, not this day
'We the People,' too often it seems
Take our roots for granted
Yet tend the soil that bares the seeds
Of which our Forefathers planted
'We the People,' must always defend
That which keeps us free
To never relinquish our Freedoms
Nor forego our Liberty
'We the People,' no truer words
Embodies our legacy
The very seeds that we must tend
In the Land of Liberty
