I sat alone on the Fourth of July As sparklers whirled in crazy colors 'cross the sky A mere glimmer, a simple shimmer In every open eye With all eyes on the sky So tradition has prevailed Where truth and knowledge failed Every year we reenact the battlefield With no idea that this war is still real America have your forgotten The men who died for you to live America have you forgotten What freedom really is Now see, me, I'm from the Garden State The middle segment on the snake And these men all they had at stake Together united, divided they would break Now these men fought and these men died But me I've cheated and I've lied Their hearts were humble But mine is full of pride So why do I deserve these rights Yeah don't abuse your rights America have your forgotten The men who died for you to live America have you forgotten What freedom really is So who am I to complain Of grief or anguish or of pain All my life I've been sheltered from the rain While every day people die in vain So no matter what you believe Get your heart out on your sleeve For the mothers of the soldiers that once more we'll never see And for those boys fighting every day to keep this country free America have your forgotten The men who died for you to live America have you forgotten What freedom really is What freedom really is
