Represent
February 8, 2016
I sway in the breeze
Yet stand proud and pose
I represent everything free
Every second my strength grows
My thirteen stripes are a strong bull
The blue is an ocean as wide as can be
The stars shine bright under the moon that's full
I stand as though any day I might leave
I am the Soldiers that fought so hard
I am the hope and the reliefs
I myself can never be torn like a card
Finally I stand for everyone's beliefs
The Fourth of July always remembers me
The fireworks share my glory
I am remembered for the brave that never flee
I am free, strong, brave, and I represent my story
