Putting on my suit, my tie,
remembering the sacrifice, the will
the honor of those who penned the words
of our Declaration, our Constitution
of the blood, shed for our privilege
Our right to vote. A solemn responsibility
claiming that for which they fought,
that for which they died, on battlefields stained
innocent, righteous blood.
For them, for their honor, we vote
little pieces of liberty, of freedom
in each check, each ballot, each number,
counting our recognition, our duty
our nation, in the act of voting
