"WHAT AMERICA MEANS TO ME"

We come to raise a Family
In a land to grow up free
We come to till this fertile Land
We won't give up, we'll make a stand
We're here to give and to receive
All the Country's Majesty
That is what America
Means to me
We come to dream of things to do
We'll do great things, it's just a part of you
We come to learn, and go to school
To make our mark, live the Golden Rule
( Repeat Chorus )
(Bridge)
We've reached the point of no return
There's no turning back
Either do what must be done
Or face a deadly attack
Our different Strains, and diversity
Make us strong, and strong we'll be
Came to these shores, proud to be
We're Americans...We Love Our Liberty
( Repeat Chorus )
