I fought for my country
Gave the best years of my youth
But I came home with a habit
That I found just to hard to loose
All I wanted was a family
A house in which to live
But I soon found out
The world had no peace left to give
I believed you when you told me
That these colors don’t ever run
So let me ask you one question
Where you when my tours were done
I didn’t choose to be a burden
Begging on the Senate floor
Oh and by the way sir’s
I didn’t choose to got to war
Red, white, and used I can’t be free, cause you won’t let go
You can’t chase shadows all alone, all alone
So twenty years of hard labor
That’s what I’m facing now
For the crime
Of laying a man’s body down
I didn’t kill nobody
Was only driving the get away car
It was my buddy
Who took it just a little to far
