Mikael James Johnston Tribute

lord I pray from day to day to help me understand
how american's view their heroes and how they judge a man
if being someone famous
is looked upon with awe
somethings wrong here with our values
what are we fighting for
I amin the military and proud of what I do
But I need to feel some strength and love
thats why I pray to you
some of our families left us
and now as years have passed
I feel the burden and the stress
for each day could be our last
I am in the field of combat with bullets surrounding me
there are few that care
for those who have died
protecting those born free
I am asking for some comfort
support and one thingmore
to get respect and honor
from the americans we fought for
you and I are the heroe's
fighting for our land to be free
and tho noone has heard our names
we're the heroe's you and me
our awards werent televised
no speech with tears in our eyes.
why is our country to blind to see
that the heroes wil always be
those of us who fought for peace
we're the heroe's you and me
those of us who fought for peace
we're the heroe's you and me
