The Definition of A Soldiercountry as flag - small
The Army has brought me honor
The uniform has given me pride
For I now protect the freedom
For which many men have died

I stand up next to these select few men
Who do the same as me
And I respect each one of them
For all their bravery

I know I can turn to a comrade
And say at any time
I'll put my life in your hands
And you can put your's in mine

But I know not everyone
Can do the same as me
It takes a special kind of man
To defend our liberty

And I know that one day
I'll be laid in hallowed ground
But this Soldier won't go quietly
I will make my Country proud
