Honors III: What does it mean to be an American? (100-200 words)

Aces Pride "Score"

We used to bite our tongue and hold our breath

Scared to show our pride and be the best

So we sat quietly, agreed politely

We guess that we forgot we had a voice

We never tried to show our pride out loud

We cheered for nothing, but now for everything.

You held us down but we got up (HEY)

Already brushing off the dust

You hear our voice, you hear that sound

Like we’re gonna shake the crowd

You held us down, but we got up (HEY)

Get ready cause we’ve had enough

We cheer it all, we cheer it now

We've got the pride of the aces, a fighter, playing through the night

Cause we are the champions and you’re gonna see us score

Prouder, prouder than the others

Cause we are the champions and you’re gonna see us score 

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

You’s gonna see us score 

(Break down into rap)

Stop the studying and listen

Aces back with a brand new addition

Somethin’ grabs ahold of us tightly

We’ve got the pride both daily and nightly

Ace, Ace, Baby

Ace, Ace, Baby
