Its time to face the truth, the matter of facts
sometime in the next few months im goin to iraq
ill be leaving her and may never come back
sometimes thats what happens to soldiers in iraq
ill be going to the sandbox to play and have fun
ill be going to the sandbox with cool toys and guns
the sandbox plays back so what do i do
the trainings gettin tough but im pushing through
i make the promise that ill live through its not one i can keep
and i know sayin this may hurt some people deep
time to face the truth likee i said
theres a chance i may end up dead
alli can do is hope for the best
hope that the bullets stop at the vest
hope that my bradley can handle the blast
so im not just a memory of everyones past
theres a war going on and im trained to fight it
im scared for my loved ones and i wont hide it
im not afraid of death but what my death will do to you
if i dont survive can you still push through
if i dont come back im sorry but you need to stay strong
always remember ill be with you all along
the time has come and the fight is real
youll never realize the pain i feel
i know i wouldnt be forgiven if i didnt come back
if the loss of life and limb, and bloods spilled in iraq
