Analysis of Mine for the Vets
its been put on their heart
to protect this land
i'm against war,
but their dedication i do understand...
they deserve more than respect,
this country, for them, should do more,
such a small percentage protecting us,
opened for them should be freedoms every door...
support your local service men & women,
its your life they defend,
tell your congressmen & women to do more as well,
because for ALL,
many of our sisters and brothers have fell...
