“The life of Momma’s Soldier”

Born on nineteen of July during the year of 1991
From that day on I sought to be number one
Even if I have to fight my way to the top of my mommas heart
For I cant find my way in life when we’re apart
Because ever since I was young I was and am mommas boy
Even up to now when I’m ready to deploy
Yes that’s right, in less then a month I have to say goodbye
And I know how many times I have said this but this time is no lie
I’m leaving for training for practically half a year
Yet through all of my troubles, my biggest fear
Is the thought of losing my family and friends in the time of my absence
For I fear that I’m already losing some with or without my presence
But you see that’s the thing; its time I broke free from my outer shell
And rise beyond heaven gates instead of plunging deeper and deeper into hell
Because it’s finally time I shaped up my life
While proceeding to the starting line of the end of all my strife
For ever since I swore in, I have been mommas soldier
Carrying the same heavy burden on my shoulder
For you see I have caused her to worry every single day
About her son who is trying to live life a better way
Even at the cost of being deployed to a hostile environment
Just as long as my promise can be completed to its fullest extent
For as long as your happy mom, ill be alright
Because you ignite the flame inside of me that always gets me through night
Helping and enabling me to see the world for what it really is
And not through perspectives of what he or she says
Deciphering the truths and lies while determining what’s fake and what’s reality
While issuing a challenge of change to all abnormalities
And no I’m not talking about mental retardation but what the world brings to the table
Things like violence, economical depressions, and wars that make this world unstable
For you see ever since I have received and put on this military uniform
My life and my eyes have been awakened and reborn
Because once a betrayed renegade crusading for new decades
But still I’ll trade it all in just to ensure my mom’s smile never fades
Especially when I made a vow and swore an oath on the twelfth of May
To defend and protect America and my home, The Island of Guam every single day
And now with a renewed courage I have been able to put aside my pride
An tell you the feelings that hide deep inside of my heart, that I have continuously denied
That I love you mom with all that resides in my and heart and in me
And I know that’s something that for your self you have never seen
For I just want to clear the air and all there is to it before I leave
Because I’m sorry for deceiving you and just want to make you believe
For through it all no matter what our lives will always be entwined
And with this last statement I hope you can forgive and change your mind
For I am an American soldier, I am and will always be Momma’s Soldier
