We have been told to pray, we had been warned!
September 11, the year 2001
A day of tragedy in the golden sun
Not just one life was shattered and torn
Thousands no longer will be as when born
Our country, a place we can be free
Was shattered and torn for all to see
Frozen in time, planes crashing, a total of four
Taking lives, heroes, and just folks, forever more
But we are Americans and will fight back
Against this evil and horrendous act
No one can bury or kill our Nation so strong
We will rebuild, in steel, concrete and with song.
You can't take us down, from land or flights above
We are Americans and will defend this land we love.
So while we mourn and pray for lives lost
For heroes trying to save others no matter the cost
We will rebound and remember to fear us, yes you must
Because we are Americans on our land and In God we Trust.
