A BAND OF BROTHERS.
We are a band of brothers
And we stand strong.
We look out for each other
Even though the days are long.
We are a band of brothers
Who don’t accept defeat.
We have fought in many battles
On land and in the street.
We are a group of men
From all walks of life.
Our skins are different colors,
And we fight with guns and knifes
We fight for truth and justice,
And the right to live free,
So others can be treated
With respect and dignity.
We fight our foes in battle.
We’re aware that we might die,
But we watch out for each other,
And we’re not afraid to cry.
We have seen our brothers fall
In battle as we fight.
When we have to close their eyes,
We know war isn’t right.
We are taught to follow orders,
To get the job done,
To achieve different tasks
Until the battle is won.
We are a band of brothers,
In life and in death.
We will always feel connected
Until our last breath.
