Heads Up Soldiers!

Soldiers heads up!The battle will now begin.
Raise your height to the steady sirens calling.
You only have one choice and this is to win.
Fight in a game of survival with conditions appalling.

Raise your height to the steady sirens calling.
On the other side the enemy waits for one wrong move.
Fight in a game of survival with conditions appalling.
Your weapons are your life.To the trigger your power prove.

On the other side the enemy waits for one wrong move.
Look around soldiers.Today is the time for a decision.
Your weapons are your life.To the trigger your power prove.
Fate will be your fatal glory,invading your inner vision.

Look around soldiers.Today is the time for a decision.
Are your innocent souls ready to carry such heavy load?
Fate will be your fatal glory,invading your inner vision.
Use your dreams to carve with steps and blood this road.

Are your innocent souls ready to carry such heavy load?
You only have one choice and this is to win.
Use your dreams to carve with steps and blood this road.
Soldiers heads up!The battle will now begin.

Most of our soldiers are far too young to carry such a load, Valeria. A very moving poem. Congratulations on your win! Best wishes, Carolyn
