Part Ofour Country's History

I see your scars that time can't erase I hear the cries of a forgotten race The suffering and death that was felt by you The story that till now had been hidden from view They called you savages with no belief in God But how could these pious men have done what they did And still believe in God Women and children slaughtered as though they were wild game A country calling these men heroes we know them by name It's not too late for all to see It's time to write history with the truth for all to see We look for no honor or glory Just the right to tell the true story A story of a people who were proud and free And our true part in our country's history
