FREEDOM is a short word
And is not always FREE

It's definition not known by many
But known by Veterans who gave so much and some gave ALL

The fight started many years ago
And shed much blood in all

We fought at Valley Forge for it
And shed blood on our soil

We fought the Civil War for it
And shed blood on our soil

We fought in WWI for it
And shed our blood on foreign soil

We fought in Europe and the Pacific in WWII for it,
And shed our blood on foreign soil

We fought in Korea and Vietnam for it (unpopular though it may be)
And shed our blood on foreign soil

We fought in the Gulf war for it
And shed our blood on foreign soil

We were routing out some terrorist in Somalia fort it
And shed our blood on foreign soil

We were hit at home by cowards and are at war with them right now
And shed our blood on our own soil

We take a lot before we act, but have seen the damage now
We are throwing our petty differences away and uniting for our cause

Our flags are flying stronger now
Our pride is growing too

But we must always remember
That our "FREEDOM IS NOT REALLY FREE"
And our blood is shed by ALL

Something always known by Veterans
And now known by ALL!
