The heroes were many
it was you, it was me.
Firemen, policemen and soldiers
you see.
They fought to save lives
and gave up their own.
We love and admire them
for what they have done.
We had to fight back
because freedom was at stake.
There is no place for terrorism
in any of our states.
Our nation came together
and decided to fight.
Army, Navy, Marines
and the like.
The Heroes are plenty
it is you and it is me.
Home of the brave,
land of the free.
We gave of our money.
We knelt down and prayed,
for all of the people
who were hurt in the blaze.
This horrible tragedy
has brought us together.
United as one
we all stood together.
We are a country
of diversity and strength.
For our rights and our freedoms,
we will go to any length.
If we must fight for peace,
we will fight side by side.
Respecting our differences,
while putting them aside.
No matter the challenge,
we will encourage each other.
Because we are American,
sister and brother.
Heroes are plenty.
Just look around.
Everywhere you look,
An American can be found.
He is standing tall,
because he is proud.
Proud to be an American,
and say it out loud.
Boys and girls
Moms and Dads,
heroes are plenty
just look around.
