Say I could go through life with a choice
Not dictated by rules my own voice
If I could choice where I would live
What I would want in life to be
Not a concept for some but to be free
Choose the people I want as friends
What kind of message to others would I send
Surely I couldn't tell them their choice of religion
For it is by the ten commandments I would live
In my heart more pleasure to give than to take
But then that is a choice for you to make
Where I would find a problem someone dictating to me
And so some beliefs don't make much sense to me
I don't want all the burden put on me
So here in America I believe in Jesus and God you see
I served my country with honor so no one dictates to me
God bless those brave soldiers trying to protect this country
And I still honor others that might think different that me
