Remember

In flanders fields the poppies do grow For those brave soldiers that did die The ones to whom I speak of Are the ones that fought with pride The ones who fought a war that was really worth fighting for The ones who stood up for our rights a freedoms It's those soldiers whom I adore They fought with a reason, they fought with a purpose The days, The night it didn't matter but still they did not hurt us What I mean is that everything that they fought for truly had a meaning They were fighting a war for life, not for wealth or stealing Please remember what these soldiers fought so hard for, Please remember why. Don't commit anymore of these acts of hate No more people need to die Everyone has there time to go in life let them choose there way The wars need to end here, the peace is what needs to stay At least one day out of the year please let's just remember The Brave, The Strong, The Few If it wasn't for them fighting for where you are now There might not be a Me a You. So with pride I say thank you from the bottom of my heart To all the soldiers that fought for the right reasons To give us all a fresh new start.
