For those who fight for us.

 I fight for what I think is right.

I am a warrior trained to fight on land, air, sea, day and night.

America is the dream for all who welcome peace,

but it seems that  to keep our ways, many others must cease.

I fight for the land of dreams,

for the red, white, black, men and women of different genes.

I give my life for the sake of others.

I am the one who fought so that you can wake to your father and your mother.

I fought the urge to return to my family.

I fought the urge to simply abandon my country.

I fought the need to want peace for myself.

So that you all could find peace… with my death.

Hence I fight for what I love.

The crowds, stars, what I see as  doves.

The children who scream, push, and shove,

who are all lucky to be apart of

the home of the brave which has risen above

hate to become the home of love.
