America The Land of the Free

How can this be?
America started under British Rule, and would never be free.
With thirteen small colonies we survived it all.
The Indians, French, British, and even the snow storms that pilled up so tall.
Each war America has fought, had a lesson to be taught.
That a big heart filled with pride, made a stronger opponent run and hide.
Freedom was precious to the fore fathers here.
The British war machine we no longer would fear.
A new nation was born with military might; it would never run from a fight.
America Land of the free, and home of the brave.
Our new war machine had nations to save.
We have stood tall for over 230 years.
If an enemy sees our flag with all its glory, for his very life he fears.
Old Glory has been all around this globe, and many have fought for the right To be free.
Today, I thank our veteran's, without you this would not be.
Against all odds you gave us that right, and our enemy knew you put up one Hell of a fight.
