This Is For You

THIS IS FOR This is for the veterans who always did as they were told Only to come home and be left out in the cold For all the single parents that try to make ends meet And pray to the Lord every day please help me on my feet This is for all the fathers who work hard everyday And for the mothers who always take the time to pray To all the lonely people who think they can’t go on Who feel like this old world has left them all alone This is for all the people who try and understand Why is there so much hatred growing through out our land And for the people who stand and always salute our flag And wonder why people would treat it like a rag This is for the children who just wants their parents love Ain’t that what it says in the bible it was sent from above Maybe if we start thinking differently and start to use our voice Then one day soon we will help somebody make the right choice.
