Falling under, fighting rain and thunder, pouring down on the life that i knew, crashing burning while the world keeps turning look away shield my lies from the truth

(Verse 1)
Everyone seems to be growing up fast, then theres me, I still feel I havnt left elementary, i have friends going in the military then theres me, trying to fulfill a dream, but whats a dream to me is their off serving our Country when i used to laugh with them and swing on swings at the playground, now they'll be off fighting in the battlegrounds, man i just can't believe it
Maybe, im just scared for you
Maybe im just scared for you
I dont ever wanna look at the news and receive bad news (shot and killed serving our country)
And I know, i should've been around more, should've made time for all of us to hang more, so im praying heavy for you that you stay safe in the core

(Verse 3)
Everyone seems to be growing up fast, then there's me, i matured over the course of years, and i'm writing this for your, ears, i just want you to know that i appreciate you and all our troops, all our troops, ya our the troops. They put their lives on the line for us, they keep the freedom of our home alive for us
And what do we do in return?
Probably not enough...
