I was born here on a winter's day But many people come from far away To live in peace and true equality And feel the strong wind of democracy I see a vision of the Promised Land A place where everybody has a chance To build a home we are proud to know And give respect to those who made it so We strive to keep the dream alive For you and I to realize American Dream We speak our minds And fight to keep our dream alive The proud and the free is who we are We'll stand together we've come this far From coast to coast and to the mountains high The beauty of our sovereign nation shines From the hearts of every countryman Into the yearning minds of our children For the hungry world we plant the seeds Giving hope to those who really need And send our soldiers off foreign lands To defend the rights of those who cant We strive to keep the dream alive For you and I to realize For every faith, and all beliefs On every city and small town street All our colors blend to one But these colors will never run American dream, like a light That keeps on shining through the darkest night The home of the brave the land of the free To share this opportunity Cause this is the American Dream To live our lives To see our destiny arise The proud and the free We speak our minds And strive to keep our dreams alive The American dream
