I hear the voices of all the good things people say about me
When i'm at my lowest and not sure if i can keep going
I think that's the main driving force it all.
I cherish those words like a retired vet cherishes his country's flag.
That is the biggest thing me and an retired vet have in common.
We both love our flag and our people.
If i could capture those good statements on a vinyl, i'd never stop playing it.
I would go through several record players within a few years
To only stop my unneeded tears and my most needed confrontation.
