This is a song for the soldier in me
I will grow stronger every time I breathe
This is for my Mamma
She led the way
She held the candle
Which I am a flame of
These are for the girls who’ll pick up my shoes And this is for the future that we stand to lose These are for the things
You can’t say out loud
For the things we’ve done
Because we weren’t allowed!
(YEAH!!!)
Is there anybody out there?
Are you listening?
Are you listening?

Toxic fogs
And cops are hogs
Twisted laws
Mangled jaws
Mothers in the killer’s arms
Children marching forth with guns
Explosions that kill everyone!
The dust don’t settle, no, till’ them bones are dry Ashes to ashes and matter to mind!
(YEAH!!!)
Is there anybody out there?
Are you listening?
Are you listening?


Were you listening when they prayed? Listening when they prayed under your bombs? Were you listening when they prayed?
Raining bullets down from your guns?


It’s a long
Long, long, long, way home
It’s a long
It’s a long, long, long, way home
Long, it’s a long, long, long, it’s a long, It’s a long Long, long, long
Long, long, long way home
