• all around this town people left, right, up and down.
•  
• so poor they gotta holla to each other every time they make a dollar,
•  
• cause help hasnt been around,
•  
• since they took the vow to settle down,
•  
• and theres nothing darker,
•  
• than the soldier in the corner lying starving on the ground,
•  
• but he refuses to be a martyr, so he grabs another round,
•  
• he wound up in the body count,
•  
• we gotta take after his spirit, even if we only get a snippet of it,
•  
• then their other partner , oh the people that prospered,
•  
• wandered to the town, inbound with nothing but a hazard,
•  
• thats why you walk around seein' bodies on the ground,
•  
• and the martyr's daughter sees, falls to her knees, hits the ground,
•  
• it will be the worst sound, it will eventually resound,
•  
• as people come around, they'll gather and be proud,
•  
• of men who went and died so we can sleep safe and sound,
•  
• scream it loud: chorus

•  
• Every day out there is like a voodoo hunting you down.

• Wish they could just go back to town see their family again.
•  
• Instead they in dense gunfire ready to get pinned.
•  
• It's a war for peace, that's how I fantasize it.
•  
• Men out there get hypnotized by gunshots and explosions-
•  
• Describable motions. Body filled with aggravation,
•  
• got their hearts racin.
•  
• Someone shoots and kills but it's a sacrifice
•  
• Got country leaders pacin.
•  
• Cuz they afraid
•  
• to show their face around us why can't
•  
• countries just discuss.
•  
• But the way we have it at least it's sacrifice.
•  
• So we can stay in paradise
•  
• but it's still got me paralyzed
•  
•
