America, Be Proud

Happy birthday America, Happy 4th of July. Show the red, white and blue, high against the sky. Over 200 years ago it was put forth to right a wrong. A new concept, a democracy, powerful and strong. According to this doctrine, we have done what we had to do. History was recorded, to prove it all to be true. To this day, we continue to fight for the right to be free. As the founding fathers created and established it to be. We all have our beliefs, to agree or disagree. I respect yours, please do the same for me. So let us raise our voices over that of the crowd. We are the United States of America! And of that, we are proud!
