Lyrics:
Been home about six months now
But I still have my doubts
Well I’m not sure how I got here
Or how I’m gonna get out
My mama says I look the same
As I did before I left
But if she could see inside of me
It would scare her to death
I can still taste the powder
From the barrel of my gun
I can hear my sergeant screaming
“Run, soldier, run”
I can feel the backpack on my shoulders
God it weighed a ton
And I see death in every single thought
They taught me how to put that uniform on
I just can’t get it off
Last Saturday they honored us
In a small parade downtown
And when they shot off those fireworks
I nearly hit the ground
And while they smiled and cheered for us
All I could do was stare
Cause part of me is here at home
And part of me is back there
Yeah there’s no end in sight
‘Cause even though I’m home now
I’m still fighting for my life
Well the devil’s won some battles
And he may win some more
But don’t he know the American soldier
Will always win the war
Hey y'all! Here is The OFFICIAL Music Video for "A Soldier's Memoir." Any of you that have been following my career know how important this song is to me! From the night playing at Sloppy Joe's in May of 2011 (the night we killed OBL), to receiving the flag flown over GTMO from our Military as a thank you for my Patritotism.... to the life-changing text message I received from Lt. Jason Duff asking me to write a song about PTSD. Making this music video with my band, SmackDab Media, my brother and fellow advocate for PTSD & TBI Awareness Tom Muffler (Professional Race Car Driver), and MOST IMPORTANTLY... US Marine Tyler Southern and US Army David Crocket has been nothing less than amazing. I have never been more proud of a song, a message, and now a video that I've helped create! I truly hope you'll share this song with everyone you know! For those of you who go to iTunes at https://itun.es/i6Fx7Pz and purchase the song, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to our amazing friends at http://www.bootcampaign.com THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
