Proud to be an American

Everytime I hear someone singing the Star Spangled Banner,
I can't help getting so emotional.

I look at time standing still for a second,
while our flag waves proudly.
I start to look at everyone,
all the Americans,
of many colors, sizes, ethnicities
in the same room without any segregation.
I start to think about how far this country has come
and how much it has accomplished.
I start to think how lucky I am
to be in a country where I can be free,
and feel so proud.
I listen to the song bird who was honored
to be chosen to sing this sacred song
and all its powerful lyrics.
I feel that every American at that moment
is connected.


Then Keri Hilson goes to the Laker Game and messes up the lyrics to the National Anthem.

We should definitely take away her citizenship....
or kick her out of America.
