The American Dream
by Sergeant Aaron M. Gilbert
Through all the fires
Through all the pain
The Marines stand tall
To fight once again
Always on call
The Presidents own
Always fighting
To protect our home
My life for our freedom
My freedom to you
These are gifts that we give
For the red white and blue
We die for you
We die for them
We do not complain
About where or when
For this is our job
To fight around the world
And give the gift of our freedom
To every boy and girl
So we fought in this war
With resolve in our hearts
To help Iraq's people
Have a new and free start
So speak of your "peace"
And how war is so wrong
But shut your face when we're called
To give out the freedom we've won
For you did not fight
And you did not bleed
And you did not die
For the American Dream.
