Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They were just kids when they got the call,
Left their homes, left it all.
Boots on the ground, in foreign lands,
Fighting for freedom, taking a stand.
Some came back, some stayed behind,
But they live on in our hearts and minds.
They wore the scars we’ll never know,
And carried the weight we couldn’t show.
[Chorus]
Stand for the brave, those who gave it all,
For the ones who rose when they heard the call.
Through the fire, through the rain,
They fought for us, we bear their pain.
Stand for the brave, let freedom ring,
For every hero who did their thing.
[Verse 2]
The years go by, but memories stay,
Of battles fought so far away.
They marched through storms, faced darkest nights,
So we could live beneath these lights.
We owe them more than words can say,
For every peace we have today.
Raise your glass, remember strong,
The ones who fought, who carry on.
[Chorus]
Stand for the brave, those who gave it all,
For the ones who rose when they heard the call.
Through the fire, through the rain,
They fought for us, we bear their pain.
Stand for the brave, let freedom ring,
For every hero who did their thing.
[Bridge]
In every heart, their courage lives,
In every song, the thanks we give.
For the red, white, and blue they wore with pride,
For the fallen, for those who survived.
[Chorus]
Stand for the brave, those who gave it all,
For the ones who rose when they heard the call.
Through the fire, through the rain,
They fought for us, we bear their pain.
Stand for the brave, let freedom ring,
For every hero who did their thing.
[Outro]
So tonight we raise our voices high,
For the sacrifice, for those who tried.
They stood for us, now we stand for them,
Our fearless heroes, our brothers and friends.
