2021/01/14 ~ A Call To The Patriots
Cheyenne Seaman 2003 (Philadelphia)
Civil war looms on the horizon.
Brother against brother, friend against friend.
Saints get together, best start prayin'
Before America meets a horrid end.
Just as the Titanic sank in nineteen-twelve
And into those frigid waters they had to delve;
Even so now we must unite and fight
Lest the Patriots divide and die.
Let not centuries of sacrifices be forgot.
Forever remember freedoms their blood has bought.
From the Revolution to twenty-twenty-one,
Many battles and wars has the U.S. fought and won.
May the Eagle soar and Old Glory fly.
May the souls of old watch with pride.
From the midnight cry of Paul Revere
To our men and women now that fight with no fear:
We owe an endless debt to all dead lives lost
For freedom isn't free; it comes with a heavy cost.
Unite and fight, for a house divided cannot stand.
Freedom and Captivity locked in combat, hand to hand.
