A remembrance piece about September 11th.
Let U.S. Not Forget

Set your focus on the day
Your eyes were opened when you woke up

When the way you viewed your life was
Shaken, shattered, shot or broke up

You couldn't even think
About the future of tomorrow

Since you couldn't see beyond the sickness,
Sadness, and the sorrow

So you huddled up with all the ones you
Love and in your soul

You made a vow to make the world a safer
Place to live and grow

You found the value of your life
Nothing matched the meaning

Of the Liberty, the Justice,
The Security and Freedom

And we all wanted to stand up
We all wanted to fight

We all wanted to be the one
To stand on that front line
