I hear people sayin'
We don't need this war.
And I say, "There 're some things
worth fightin' for."
What about our Freedom
And this piece of ground?
We didn't get to keep 'em,
By backin' down.
They say, "We don't realize
The mess we're gettin' in."
Before you start your preachin',
Let me ask you this my friend.
Have you forgotten,
How it felt that day?
To see your homeland under fire,
And your people blown away?
Have you forgotten,
When those towers' fell?
We had neighbors still inside,
Goin' through a livin' hell.
And you say,
"We shouldn't worry 'bout Bin Laden."
Have you forgotten?
They took all the footage,
Off my T.V.
Said it's too disturbing,
For you and me.
"It'll just breed anger,"
It's what the experts say.
If it was up to me,
I'd show it everyday.
Some say this country's just out
lookin' for a fight.
After 9-11 (Nine eleven),
Man, I'd have to say that's right
Have you forgotten,
How it felt that day?
To see your homeland under fire,
And your people blown away.
Have you forgotten,
When those towers' fell?
We had neighbors still inside,
Goin' through a livin' hell.
And you vowed,
To get the ones behind Bin Laden.
Have you forgotten?
I've been there with the soldiers,
Who've gone away to war.
And you can bet that they remember,
Just what they're fighting for.
Have you forgotten,
All the people killed?
Yes, some went down like Heros,
In that Pennsylvania field.
Have you forgotten,
About our Pentagon?
All the loved ones that we've lost,
And those that could carry on.
Don't you tell me,
Not to worry 'bout Bin Laden.
Have you forgotten?
Have you forgotten?
Have you forgotten?
