We were just there
We stood high in the air
We took photos and held hands
As we looked over this great land
It’s a place so many want to be
A hundred ten floors of democracy
But one evil act
Will never erase all that
Nine eleven two thousand and one
This is when it all begun
Thousands lost their lives
But the spirit of America will never die
Heroes rushed to the scene
As the buildings crushed so many
The numbers were hard to gauge
When rage took center stage
Freedom will always ring loud
The American people are proud
Concrete and metal can be torn apart
But nothing can break the American heart
Nine eleven two thousand and one
This is when it all begun
Thousands lost their lives
But the spirit of America will never die
