V4.5

[Intro] My Country, 'Tis of Thee, sweet land of liberty, Broke from the crown and tyranny to live and be free. So they rose up strong, took a rebel’s stand, Parchments signed in the heat of July’s hand. “We the People” rang, let the old ways die, From chains to choice, from rule to vote, Broke from the crown just to build this hope. [Verse 1] Power with the people, ballot box speaks, Leaders shift like seasons, no throne to seize. Voices in the open, no fear to dissent, We rise with signs, not silent pleas. Press stay loud, truth can’t be sold, Light in the dark where the secrets freeze. Rights for the many and rights for the few, Law don’t bend for the power or fees. Checks on the power, no kings, no crowns, The gavel stands where the sword might tease. Transparent talks, what you see is real, Accountability inked, no behind-the-scenes. Minorities safe, no scapegoat game, We all count equal in this nation's dream. [Pre-Chorus] From chains to choice, the fight’s never done, Darkness lurks, if we never fight it's already won We hold the power, don’t let it slip, Freedom’s fragile gotta guard that grip. Stand up, speak out, break the silence down, Our voice is thunder Hear it rise from every town. [Chorus] Remember Independence Day, The only holiday we celebrate every day, Even if it’s a fight to keep it that way. This is the land where the people lead, From every voice grows freedom's seed. Hold it close, don’t let it fall, Together we rise one for all. So when the Fireworks hit the sky this Fourth of July. Remember Why This is Independence Day [Post Chorus] Last time I’ll be free to say, If it slips, it fades away. Here’s the alternative, what they’ll play, If we lose Independence Day. [Verse 2] Concentration of power, no room to breathe, Chokehold governance, tighten the seams. Propaganda floods got the truth in chains, Lies drip daily through pixel beams. Cult of the leader, statues rise high, Crowds programmed to cheer routine extremes. Surveillance on lock, every word gets tracked, Private life sold to invisible regimes. Censorship heavy, dissent gets crushed, Speak out once you vanish in screams. Corporatism tight big biz and state, Cash-fed loyalty fuels their schemes. Scapegoats blamed when the system cracks, Fear’s the engine in authoritarian dreams. [Bridge] Leave perfect to the god you pray to, Don’t be so righteous you crush the few. Arrogant views that blind and divide, Truth gets lost when pride won’t subside. If you want justice, start with the heart, Tear down the walls that keep us apart. Power’s a test, not a throne to claim, We rise together or fall in shame. [Final Chorus] Remember Independence Day, The only holiday we celebrate every day, Even if it’s a fight to keep it that way. If you like your freedom, remember the alternative This is the land where the people lead, From every voice grows freedom's seed. Hold it close, don’t let it fall, Together we rise one for all. So when the fireworks hit the sky this Fourth of July, Remember why This is Independence Day. [Outro] Remember why the fire still burns, In every heart, the freedom yearns. Whispers low through smoke and sky, Hold on tight and remember why. If you don't believe it can happen here Think again and WAKE UP! If silence falls and voices fade, The price is paid for freedom’s shade. So keep the flame, don’t let it die, In darkest nights, remember why. We Celebrate Our Independence Day
