Story Behind The Song
I wrote this song as the theme song for America's Veterans Task Force and the local chapter. I retain all rights to the song and simply sell them the copies as they need them. I would love to see this song go national through music video, charitable orgainzations, clubs, and patriotic tribute.

Vs. 1
Every time they raise the flag, my heart unfurls.
Of all the places I could live within this world
I live in Freedom.
I live in Freedom.
Dressed in uniform they guard us everyday
From behind a desk or even in harms' way
To live in Freedom.
To live in Freedom.
Chorus
America - my land of liberty.
America. The very heart of you and me
Knows a heavy price was paid
To give us all we have today
To live in Freedom.
And may our children see
In the heart of you and me
That liberty
Has a price that isn't free.
They must protect her and defend her once again
To live in Freedom.
Vs. 2
Many gave their lives and sacrificed their all.
In the face of fear they stood so tall.
To live in Freedom.
To live in Freedom.
And no matter what may ever come our way
We must face our fears. Let no man take away
Our precious Freedom.
Our precious Freedom.
Chorus
America - my land of liberty.
This is America. The very heart of you and me
Knows a heavy price was paid
To give us all we have today
To live in Freedom.
And may our children see
In the heart of you and me
That liberty
Has a price that isn't free.
They must protect her and defend her once again
To live in Freedom.
To live in Freedom.
God bless our Freedom.
