       The fourth of July comes once a year                                             we may forget what it is for                                                                                   There were many soldiers that gave their life                                            To keep your freedoms stored

 
      So we create the blast of the of symbols
       in history of what we have done
       For all the hell our soldiers went through
       Where war was never fun
 
       Reminding us what the blast was for
       and what the soldiers endured
       we are making a physical symbol
       to celebrate of what our soldiers insured
 
       We hope on  this Independence Day
       an explanation in a brilliant way to say
       We bless you for all our freedoms
       In our hearts that we will pray
 
      The giving of ones soul
      as a man protects his family
       or a soldier does for his flock
       I wish we never have the raise a rifle
       and leave the gun un cocked
      
       The world is changed forever
        aggression does not stop
        To lower your guard to aggression
        Makes you a lamb or deer to drop
 
        I will blow with many creations
        Making the sound of war
        This reminds us the noise of the blast of past
         What the soldiers seen before
 
         I hope this 4th  of July celebration
         as explosions is a way to say
         We Bless all Americans
         In our hearts that we will pray
 
          Yes I stand at attention and to the flag
          as the soldiers of our past
           And the flag that stands before me
          all Americans have a task
 
          Written by Darryl Ehlers
