The civil war ignited your name
Unfortunately, today it is not quite the same
The souls and tears that were shed 
Please honor all of the dead
Now we can see the truth
A divided nation, uncouth 
Rise above 
Fall in love
With the history of our nation
And remember your condemnation 
Of your shameful protest
That postures like a contest 
Lost Freedom fighters lay for us
And all you do is show your disgust
Old Glory stand tall
Be proud and never fall
Continue to wave so high
In our American sky
United we will try to stand
A celebration of freedom for our land!
