Remember the Day

Four years ago today
What’s left for me to say?
I was in Spanish class
I just let the news pass
Needed a helping hand
So I could understand
Barely in the sixth grade
I saw history made
It made people gasp, cry
So many had to die
And I still don’t know why
Those terrorists did wrong
Can’t we all get along?
I was still a young kid
Called terrorists stupid
I’m sorry this is true
There’s nothing we can do
