Because We Can

"because we can"

we will face the day with color and flair
ready and set for challenges come what may
never looking back at circumstances unfair
so shades of red we will flamboyantly spray
this forever our game plan because we can

we'll take the reds and wear them proudly
the bold the beautiful and the fearless
having them shine inwardly and outwardly
proving to our souls there is no weakness
this forever our game plan because we can
