Glory Colors
The colors we combine will shine a uniqueness that is divine.
I find the colors of blues and reds are colors of power and bravery
also that was birthed from integrity.
This land would not be free if it would not have been for the blood
that was shed for this great land of the free.
Hard work was imbedded in our young men by the time they were three
you see we are a country that never ran out and became cowards.
No we stood up for what we believed in and what was worth fighting for.
White is the purity of the mother's prayers who prayed to God
that He would bring her son home.
She kept the faith of four fathers, some sad to say never came home
many tears have been sown.
Stand tall of the red white and blue it was the lives that were lost
and men that came back never were the same.
Now we are great free country the United States of America.
On this July 4 th please remember to bow your heads
and pray that America will always be the land of the free.
