Happy Birthday America

our fathers left us a legacy
by dawns early light
from a night long ago
we still have that same sight
our race is human
American is nationality
we are still brothers
with different personalities
each color varies in shade
the gender is two
the blood of America
happy birthday, we still love you

One nation, under God.
Indivisible, with liberty and justice for ALL.
Know it, Believe it, Live it.
