Soldier

Soldier They march as one as a unit With discipline they stand lucid Into battle, they are ready On a narrow path feel their furry As bullets fly by In combat they are brave in the sky With courage in green they protect For we will never forget War is upon us all All four branches in the military stand tall In the desert there is difficulty On the front lines it is bloody With honor they protect with their lives Silver in hand is sharp like a knife For they are so far away from home We acknowledge the sacrifices you made, you are not alone Camouflage painted in green and black We thank our soldiers for coming back While the plains fly high in the sky Our military troops fight, we will never say goodby A lonely road is unforgiven As Americans, we will lift your burdens In closing I write this letter for you In testimony I can’t thank you enough for what you do Our enemies drew first blood With armer and guns, we’ve all had enough To all those who have fallen hard We give back with honor a purple heart. It has been a long journey under the sun Lay down the violence for it is done.
