Fighting soldiers from the sky
Fearless men who jump and die
Men who mean just what they say
The brave men of the Green Beret
Silver wings upon their chest
These are men, America’s best
One hundred men will test today
But only three win the Green Beret
Trained to live off nature’s land
Trained in combat, hand-to-hand
Men who fight by night and day
Courage peak from the Green Berets
Silver wings upon their chest
These are men, America's best
One hundred men will test today
But only three win the Green Beret
Back at home a young wife waits
Her Green Beret has met his fate
He has died for those oppressed
Leaving her his last request.
“Put silver wings on my son’s chest,
Make him one of America’s best,
He’ll be a man they'l test one day
Have him win the Green Beret”
It seems I am the only one of my friends that looks at the war in whole. We are helping a people get free from a force that they can't control.
If I can stop one person’s pain, I would give my life. In a few days I will be sent. All I can hope for is freedom from pain for them.
But I can't know, I am not god. But I believe god has failed me. So I will never force it upon him or her. No one will suffer cause I have not acted. I have tried to be sent. But my job is too extreme. I will try my best to be sent.
I feel all my pain rise up and call me, I will respond. I will be over there.
God and goddess forgive the lives I take and take them to heaven. But take me to hell for the sins I will cause. It is only just.
