Sept 11 Tribute

The years have 
gone by, but it's 
still clear as day.

Recalling painful 
memories, brings 
tears down my 
face.

An act of terrorism 
took a hold on our 
way of life.

Eyewitness news,
while others paid 
with their lives.

Freedom isn't free,
were hated on by 
our enemies.

We're all people 
of flesh and blood. 

Killing each other 
with no remorse. 

How much more 
can we take, united 
as one we will always
reign. 

God watch over us,
baptize us in your 
love.

Let our enemies 
see the beauty of 
life through us.

Let our angels from 
9/11 encourage us,
as we keep their 
memories alive in 
our hearts...

As we reach for 
the stars, in search
for a better tomorrow.
