He stood on a hillside
rifle by his side
he saluted the hero’s that once worked beside him who lost their lives
Unsure of his own fate ahead he stood on a hillside rifle in hand
Awaiting the battles he was about to face
Thinking of family
his own son whom one day may follow in his own steps he made
All his buddy’s now hero’s as he himself becomes a hero
Serving his country with all his might
Seeing places in different light
Remembering those whom once went before him
once stood at his own side
It was now his very own fight as he now sit to ponder upon that solum hillside
In his words God bless America
As he sit and pray
for he knew one day that hero could be him and not his friend
He was a soldier this is what he chose to be
A man of honor for his own country
To all the hero’s who once stood here wishing you best this Memorial Day
Remembering those who fought the war and went to battle their very own fight at life
