When the day comes kiss your kids goodbye Pack up your things with your heads held high And try not to cry Cause we got to be strong Put on a tough face an promise your love ones your coming back home Cause it'll be us on the front lines Us who will be the first to hear the bullets fly And the rockets and tanks Out here where just a number Same thing back home If you think they care our lives on the line Your horribly wrong an a lil naive It's us who will be in the trenches fighting for their lives Because their to priceless to fight an die They have to many things to loose They have a lot to prove But so do we too Some of us are fighting for the promise of a big financial break To put food on our babies plate To stop the bank from taking Maybe they will train us And give us a way to survive Or maybe it's a way to get rid of us To deplete or population We outweigh them But still there on top They control the flow of money While our wells run dry So when that day comes It's us who's on the front lines Trying to provide for the ones we love back home And it's not like we have a choice We are the ones picked first But we don't back down Be ready When the rich wage war it's the poor who die
