Doing What We Have To Now Do
Of those hurt, during the world's commotion,
whom were there, at the wrong time and place.
All realizing, at the very initial moment,
their life will soon end, from what, they then face.
On their honor, I fight, along with my battles,
no more, will those, whom then cause, will get away.
Us across the frontlines, fully prepared, ready to engage,
upon the enemy; with their lives, being the price to pay.
As long, as there is; and all in uniform, we are,
never again, will those, like previous, have to go through.
Becoming changed people, compared from whom, we were,
promising to defend all, doing what, we have, to now do.
