I Watched That Flag Fly - Original Patriotic Anthem | Patriot of the Republic 1776

I Watched That Flag Fly - Original Patriotic Anthem This song is my personal journey: from a kid watching the World Trade Center fall on 9/11, to enlisting with "not on my watch," to serving as a first responder, and carrying the strength of the flag today—even through the pain and scars that come with it. After years of service in the military and fire service, my body couldn't take it anymore—pinched nerves, pulled muscles, constant ringing ears—so I had to step away from both worlds. I moved into the trades as a plumber, fixing and installing pipes, but still carrying that same honor and fight for freedom in every wrench I turn. Lyrics by me with AI assistance | Music generated with Suno AI (Pro tier, full commercial rights) Full lyrics: [Verse 1] When I was just a kid, saw the World Trade Center fall, Watched those brave firefighters give their all. Their courage lit a fire deep in my soul’s core, Swore one day I’d be brave, like them, and more. I saw the heroes climb, no fear in their eyes, Carrying hope through smoke, under shattered skies. That moment shaped my heart, it showed me the way, To stand up, step up, and serve one day. [Verse 2] I remember soldiers fighting in Iraq’s burning sand, In Afghanistan’s mountains, they made their stand. Their courage kept me safe, through the darkest night, Their victories filled my heart with a patriot’s light. I watched them march, so bold, with honor they’d strive, Proud to wear the uniform, keep freedom alive. I dreamed I’d join their ranks, their strength I’d claim, To fight for liberty, to carry the flame. [Chorus] Oh, I watch that flag fly, red, white, and blue, For every soul who fought, for the brave and true. They didn’t die for nothing, their sacrifice remains, In the hearts of a nation, through the joy and the pain. From the fields of battle to the home we defend, Their love for this land will never end. United we stand, with pride in our eyes, For the flag we fly, forever it rises. [Verse 3] I took an oath to serve, to protect the weak, Held the hands of the fallen, heard their hearts speak. From suicide’s shadow to heart attacks’ toll, I carried my brothers’ weight, their stories in my soul. Held a boy’s hand, shot by terror’s cruel aim, Crying in my truck, down that long road of pain. Saw my comrades fall, back home and afar, Yet their spirit lives on, like a guiding star. [Verse 4] Now I’m a plumber, away from the war’s scar, Fixing pipes and homes, but I’ve come so far. The battles I fought, the trauma I bore, Built a dream of freedom worth fighting for. Though the past still lingers, the pain doesn’t fade, I serve my community with the skills of my trade. Every wrench I turn, every pipe I mend, Is for the land I love, for the peace we defend. [Chorus] Oh, I watch that flag fly, red, white, and blue, For every soul who fought, for the brave and true. They didn’t die for nothing, their sacrifice remains, In the hearts of a nation, through the joy and the pain. From the fields of battle to the home we defend, Their love for this land will never end. United we stand, with pride in our eyes, For the flag we fly, forever it rises. [Bridge] Through the tears and the triumphs, we’re stronger as one, From the ashes of hardship, our unity’s won. Every soldier, every hero, every life that we’ve lost, Their blood fuels our future, no matter the cost. I carry their honor in the work that I do, Building homes, building hope, for the red, white, and blue. [Final Chorus] Oh, I watch that flag fly, red, white, and blue, For every soul who fought, for the brave and true. They didn’t die for nothing, their sacrifice remains, In the hearts of a nation, through the joy and the pain. From the fields of battle to the home we defend, Their love for this land will never end. United we stand, with pride in our eyes, For the flag we fly, forever it rises. [Outro] So I’ll keep on serving, in war or in peace, For the land of the free, where our dreams never cease. From a kid with a dream to a man standing tall, I’ll honor the fallen, I’ll answer the call. For the flag we fly, forever it waves, For the brave, for the free, for the land of the brave.
