If you were ever put in a heavy situation
would you be overthrown by rising anticipation
When it comes to the point of no return
would you defend for yourself and leave the rest to burn
Looking back at all the tragedy and pain you've caused
you wouldn't receive a single 'thank you' let alone a applause
Why do you enjoy hearing the sounds of cries
Then watching people drown in their own lies
I can't seem to understand
why there is individuals trying to destroy our land
If we are all equal and thought of as one
Why is there war every rise and fall of the sun
innocent people vanishing into the dark
they are the people that make it possible for kids to play at the park
Risking their own lives, for a better tomorrow
their families and friends are left with feelings of sorrow
The ones who have past, will always be hero's
we all need to be able to remember, and be able to teach those
About the soldiers, who have gone to rest
and those who have been put through the test
War is something that will be with us throughout eternity
So much hate and lies, and not enough purity
I dont know what is going to become of us,
We all need to move with our lives, and believe in those that we trust
