Being Respectful

Being respectful in differences of thought
Is a principle for which this nation fought
Not through arms but by diplomacy
As we are a country framed in democracy

To follow the precepts our forefathers wrote
We make decisions through popular vote
If we do not like something that we see about
Our voice can be heard and our Congressman sought out

Patience is the key for changes to be won
For it takes a lot of hands for something to get done
More important than anything a citizen can protest
Is to have high morals and help children be their best

A country is as good as its people, it's a fact
For if it weren't, what laws of decency would stay intact?
There's only so much a government can do
For they are the servants of fellow countrymen too
