Rebellion
He stood on the box that day
Patrick Henry swore
“Give me liberty, or give me death!”
On that day he took a stand against the English heavy hand
We say no to a monarch rule of our land
Today, we base our laws on the works of brave men
The Constitution, they delivered as they stood their ground
Rebellion, Rebellion was the cry
From Lexington and Concord to Yorktown
They fought and in the end
Cornwallis, great Army surrender to the rebellion
This legacy that was given, born of blood is our freedom
We must swear to uphold and protect the Constitution
From both foreign and domestic enemies
When at such time, there comes to power people, who abuse that power
Rebellion, Rebellion I say
Like my forefathers did
No one can take my freedom, no monarch shall rule this man
For if I must, I will die for the Constitution
“Give me Liberty, or give me death!”
For I will fight, until my last breath
REBELLION!
