I Walk Alone

I walk not alone I walk not alone. But with many of my brothers and sisters. I watch them fall. Knowing I maybe next. I carry my head high knowing what I doing was making my nation proud. I stand up for freedom in the world. So I can see little children grow. This land that I serve has been free for over 200 years. Many before me gave their life. Now it's mine to do the same. As the bombs drop, I see out in the distance a flag. It has many stars and red and white stripes ripped but not fallen. I just think about only one thing this flag is mine and I helped keep it flying. So not only we serve a nation. We serve those that have died before us. So God blesses America And my brothers and sisters.
