Army BRATS Always Wanna Fly High
Army BRAT’S Always ‘Wanna’ Fly High
The tradition necessitates that as a child born unto military parents
Called by the beloved acronym Born Raised and Trained (BRAT’S)
Be always on the spotlight as they augment and compliment
The guys in uniform ever shifting from one place to another
Military BRAT’S never quite settle born and raised as sojourners
Born of a privileged life to live in army barracks all their youth
Raised by parent weighed down by responsibility and call to duty
And always having to watch their parents go to war torn areas
Trained in all military affairs from the day they are born unto earth
Military BRAT’S are like dandelions fated to be ever on the move
As BRAT’S are raised by Parent with disciplined training
From the day they enter this world as they are celebrated
They are surrounded by military fatigues and paraphernalia
They are likely to be put on a rigid disciplinary camp routine
In young teenage they look up unto the soldiers’ n r inspired
Being children who are likely to lead their early life in camps
Reality being that they are likely to receive boot camp training
At a very early age they learn ARMY mannerism and decorum
Tentative they are ever weighing options and rules that they face
ARMY BRAT’S whose flower s the dandelion being want to be fun
Army camps though a place of discipline and stringent rules at all times
Realize as the bases the youngsters ARMY BRAT’S turn into playgrounds
Mimicking the drills and adventures they hear from the uniformed crew around
Youth quickly fades and they find themselves faced in due time to then fathom
Whether a military life is for them or to seek out other fulfilling career paths
Deeds of mighty men in their youth they are mentored by time and again
Always striving to impress a clique of personnel who are hardly impressed
Never the ones to be found in public schools the military academy is school
Deeds to be found in a military based schools always discipline is wanting
Ever the Army BRATS yearning to flex their wings ever getting ears cuffed
Liberty is found when they can lead their life oblivious yet ever on the note
In essence they are raised by the entire barrack as they are ever finding ways
On their many escapades to get into trouble with the officers on duty in camp
Never once lonely but in truth missing the normal publics life and escapades
Seeing a Military BRAT reach for the heights is the pride of all at the camp
