Why I Fightcountry as flag
From one battle to the next nothing will ever change
America will continue to fight until freedom reign
I fight for those who are not willing to fight
I fight so those people can have that right
You may ask what do we get in return
For a chance at freedom I want my kids and their kids to get a fair turn
For those watching on TV, they say its for the rich to get richer
But for us here on the battlefield we tend to see a different picture
Please don't judge us for what we are doing
Try cheering us on instead of booing
I fight cause I plan to win
If not, I will still fight until the end
And If you're wondering, NO this life is really no fun
But we must continue to fight until the battle is all done
So go ahead and ask me why I fight
And I'll look you dead in the face and say,
It's my GOD GIVEN RIGHT!
