"The Star-Spangled Banner" by Sarah Mchlachlan and Will Smith

 [Sarah]

O say can you see, by the dawn’s early light,

What so proudly we hail’d at the twilight’s last gleaming,

Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight

O’er the ramparts we watch’d were so gallantly streaming?


[Will]

Ha ha, Big Willie's in the place, uh huh

Yeah, we 'bout to get it started, let's go


[Together]

And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air,

Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there,

O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave

O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?


[Will]

Yo, it's Will Smith and I'm hyped to be here

Proud of our country and the ones we hold dear

Got the stars and stripes waving high in the air

It's a beautiful sight, let's all show we care


[Sarah]

On the shore dimly seen through the mists of the deep

Where the foe’s haughty host in dread silence reposes,

What is that which the breeze, o’er the towering steep,

As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?


[Will]

From the land of the free to the home of the brave

We stand tall, never bowing to the hate

With our flag held high, we'll never back down

It's the red, white, and blue, that's our crown


[Together]

Now it catches the gleam of the morning’s first beam,

In full glory reflected now shines in the stream,

’Tis the star-spangled banner - O long may it wave

O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!


[Will]

Big Willie Style, I'm proud to be free

In this great nation, that's the way it should be

So let's all come together, with love in our hearts

And show the world that we'll never be torn apart


[Sarah]

And where is that band who so vauntingly swore,

That the havoc of war and the battle’s confusion

A home and a Country should leave us no more?

Their blood has wash’d out their foul footstep’s pollution.


[Together]

No refuge could save the hireling and slave

From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave,

And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave

O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.


[Will]

That's right, Big Willie Style, we'll never back down

With the stars and stripes, we'll never lose the crown

So let's all stand tall, and show what we're made of

It's the land of the free, and the home of the love
