The Marked Bullet

We fight each day for our own survival We all have our inspirations at home waiting with hope Going through hell and back is our daily job But there is one thing that we dare not think of at any time The known fact that there is an enemy out there waiting His clip loaded with a special bullet The bullet has our name engraved in it waiting to finish us off But the job that we chose was to protect our country before that bullet comes So each day we march through the swamps As the only thing we can do is pray But we have one personal task that we must achieve When the day that we come face to face with that bullet We must ask ourselves one thing Did we do our very best to fight for the man right next to us The brother that we went through hell with and fought to protect That is the ultimate goal of every soldier before the day that bullet comes To protect our country, family, and brothers in arms
