Miles away in an unsafe place

               Straight face

         Living life at a base

Keeping up with military pace

             Stuck at war

           With the corps

         In the battlefield

          No time to yield

        Challenging fights

          Endless nights

          Night and day

         The price I pay

    While enemies offend

      I’m here to defend

      Gun in my hand

      Protect our land

        Many decease

    It’s time for peace

  Got a family at home

     No time to roam

     Take my stand

   Boots in the sand

   No time to prattle

   It’s time to battle.
