| Forever Free |  |
| America - Land of the free and home of the brave
Centuries of freedom cannot be saved
If we are not willing to go and defend
The same rights for others, until the end
Of tyrants that rule by fear and terror
Blinded by ego, doomed by error
If they live by the sword, in the name of God
Their cause will die when our soldiers trod
Forward for victory, peace and the right
For others to stay home and say, "don't fight"
War is unnecessary between those who reason
And recognize truth instead of perversion
When all else fails the dialog of peace
Our soldiers efforts will not cease
Til their victory reigns for all mankind
And neighboring nations have peace of mind
Protest if you must, but do not forget
Others risk death to pay back a debt
To forefathers who died that you would be
Living in a land, forever free!
When freedom is oppressed in far away lands
By those hungry for power, that only understand
Governing by force and subjection to fear
Our own freedoms that we hold dear
Will slowly dissolve if we ignore
And take the position of no more war
Not all return when the guns are stilled
And grief nor tears for loved ones killed
Can not be quelled by words of praise
For the pride and honor of flags upraised
Our soldiers portrayed in hopes to be
Soon returning to a land, forever free! | By Carl M. Capron
