Fourth of July
Breaking out in Red, White, and Blue
Patriotic people everywhere
Flags on the front side of every house
Cookouts and BBQs
Glow sticks, face paint
Big parties
you whole family is there
The day goes by while everyone's having fun
Then dusk hits and the sun goes down
People flee to the lake
Hike a mountain in the cold black air
Bright colors exploding in the sky
That all anyone can see a mile wide
Celebration fills the air
While everyone goes silent
We celebrate our country
And the people who fought
The people who are still deployed
And our friends next door
Everyone puts hate aside for one day
And the Country comes together as one
The finale finally hits
Endless exploding fireworks are lit
Then we go back home for a long night's rest
Have to go to work on monday everyone says
But for that moment everyone was calm
The Fourth of July is one of my favorite songs
A day I wait for all year long

I love the summer and my family does a huge party every year. Every cook out food you can imagine is there. Someimes we go to the lake and sit on a boat and just watch fire works.
