Independence Days!
Declare your independence
Open up your skies
Grab the reigns that make you fly
Claim your favorite prize
Always dream in color
Mix in every hue
Bask in light of warm rosé
Which sunsets give to you
Swim in lake and ocean
Inflate yourself with pride
Follow any rainbow
That helps you feel inside
Toca la guitarra
Canta en el sol
Acarica al gato
Alabe el girasol
Embrace your neighbor's music
Next door, or not in view
To isolate is poisonous
To share will see us through
Pledge your true allegiance
To our Mother Earth
Share the blessings of the soil
Revive a country's worth
Today is Independence Day
Yesterday was too
Tomorrow, declare freedom
For peace...red, white & blue!
