Four years have passed
Yet the memories are crystal clear
Fire, smoke, dust and fear
Are forever in the air
And one small thing
Intangible though it may be
It ruled the day
Not the fear
A country caught in the new millenium
Each running day to day
Depending on none
Became millions united as one
Efforts to destroy our grand Nation
Turned anger and sorrow
To pride and fame
Pride in our country
Fame among our own
Everyday folk
Defending all we dearly hold
Forever enfolded
within the pages of history
Our Patriotism shall forever
Show we are still free
To those filled with hate toward US
Please first remember this:
We chose not to fall divided
But instead to rise United.
