The Heartbeat of a Soldier

The heartbeat of a soldier
Protects the ones he loves
Fighting for his country
With his gun and his gloves
Laying it all down 
With passion and power
Believing in what is right
While facing the darkest hour
Facing enemy gunfire
With his head held high
Shows the heartbeat of a soldier
Will never ever die.
