Poem
Your not sure how you got to this point You said it was pride took the pen into your hand signed that dotted line Before your on your own two feet and stand they say they can make you a man In war the score is yours, was that the plan? Keep your head up son, I'm sure you can They say that freedom ain't free Is that why every year I see The young and the dreamy impassioned by drill Sergeants screaming This is life boy, give your life boy just so arrogant people play life like a toy ready to be deployed so someone else can enjoy? This is not me, but written in blood for family Never thought it would hit home directly But you never know what you hold or what you got until the trigger is pulled, guns shot When the smoke clears Best hope you reside Hold your own, no fear This is just stop one on a very large ride Returning home and everything stayed the same funny how one experience in life everything in your eyes feels changed but that's the knife or rather ripple in reality and the dream we are instilled while your smiling at home someone's protecting you under their own will
