Track 14- The Hands That Built America

Date:2003
This song is about how different races of people help build America. It talks about building buildings and it also talks about 9/11 in the last verse: "There's a cloud on the New York skyline
Innocence dragged across a yellow line". This song has a very strong meaning to it and I believe it was written after the events happened therefore giving us a historical perspective of the United States. This song helps a person understand that America was not only built by Europeans but a whole list of races. I thought this song was ok and I think it could have been less slow.
