Am just remembering what we’re fighting for. This song isn’t perfect, but I like that this kid was passionate enough about The Bill of Rights to write a song about it.
Wrecking ball – Bill of Rights:
Song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FoqKjzuiBBk
Lyrics:
We clawed, we chained, our rights at stake
We fought, giving up our lives
We won, its done articles of confederation
was nice but no Bill of Rights
Don’t you ever say my rights have gone away
that will never be true
Check out Amendment 5
due process every time
If I’m wrongly accused
They met in Philadelphia
The articles were not enough
All they wanted was to make some laws
Amendments that could protect me
Yeah, they protect me
I sing, I cry, hands in the sky
Thank you lord, they’re not coming down
Amendment One, freedom of religion
Praising god, and you can’t tell me how
Don’t you ever say my rights have gone away
That will never be true
Check out amendment 2
if someone acts a fool
firearms can protect you
They met in Philadelphia
The articles were not enough
All they wanted was to make some laws
Amendments that could protect me
They worked in independence hall
On nine seventeen they got it done
All they wanted was to make some laws
Amendments that could protect me
Yeah they protect me
I never meant to start a war
I just wanted you to let me in
But without consent of the owner
That’s a battle you will never win
Thank god for amendment four
The cops can’t come and break my door
unreasonable searches are no more
Don’t you ever say my rights have gone away
That will never be true
They met in Philadelphia
The articles were not enough
All they wanted was to make some laws
Amendments that could protect me
They worked in independence hall
On nine seventeen they got it done
All they wanted was to make some laws
Amendments that could protect me
Yeah they protect me
Yeah they protect me

Nice Galen, I was just listening to The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgeral by Gordon Lightfoot, made me feel how fleeting this life can be and how what we do can be the same, our intent and our knowledge must be replicated and planted in the young.
