INDEPENDENCE DAY

INDEPENDENCE DAY

WhiteHeart

Look it, Daddy.  Look at that parade!  They got a marchin’ band.

What is Independence Day?

Ask not what your country can do for you.  Ask what you can do for your country.

You got to know the truth if you wanna be free.

What is freedom anyway?

Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill in Mississippi.  From every mountainside.  Where all of God’s children, black men and white men, Jews and gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual.  Free at last.  Free at last.  Thank God Almighty, free at last!

Fight

Listen to our declaration

Listen to our testament

We’ve been given a revelation

We’re sure of where we stand

So let the banner be unfurled

We found a Light of hope

In a dying world

Hear the myth of modern man

You’re the god of your own land

You call your weak

Spineless fools

You’ve given up your right to rule

But I’ve been to the land of me

And I know I was never free

Freedom came

When I gave it all away

So we’re callin’ it Independence Day

I call it Independence Day

Let the rockets blaze across the sky

Raise the flag of praise up high

Let the doubters call it what they may

It’s Independence Day

You can work to crown another hundred kings

But I believe in a better dream

They may call it slavery

But the biggest chain I knew was me

So let the idols tumble down

The walls of lies crumble to the ground

I know where salvation can be found

Let the idols tumble down

That’s why they call it Independence Day

I call it Independence Day

Let the rockets blaze across the sky

Raise the flag of praise up high

Let the doubters call it what they may

It’s Independence Day

So join in the celebration

It’s a birth of a holy nation

It’s people alike

We are proud to say

It’s why we call it Independence Day

I call it Independence Day

Let the doubters call it what they may

‘Cause we call it Independence Day

It’s Independence Day

Independence Day
