The best things in life are not truly free
That is why freedom comes at such a high cost

The men and women who give up their lives,
They are the ones who truly give us hope

They leave their families
Not knowing if they will ever see them again

They stand strong and fight
Just to protect the red, white, and blue of our great flag.

They are our United States veterans
Those who have died and those who have lived through the war

They are the ones who give you a place to call home
