SOLDIER OF FORTUNE

Soldier of fortune, warrior of fate 
Maker of destiny, may it be great 
His heart and soul have gone to roam 
Longs for the day he'll find his home

Against the storms he walks alone 
He braves the tides with blood and bone 
Wishing for sunrise of tomorrow 
To wipe away his pain and sorrow 

He walks barefoot on sands of dune 
His courage is his only tune 
The foul winds chase him everywhere 
Against their mists, he does not cower 

A drifter lost, may he find his way 
After the dusk and sky of gray 
Soldier of fortune, he'll always be 
He fights to breath like you and me
