Close your eyes and imagine The soldier, at valley forge The suffering that he endured was real Starvation, total war Yet in has eyes, the iron will to win And for the cause he won't relent Would he look upon us now in anger and disgust? His providence, our birthright and our creed Will we let ignorance and laziness bring our demise? Complacency, we're blinded by our greed Standing barefoot, frozen bloody hands His musket clutched in iron grip And for the cause, he has but one regret He's only got one life to give Would he look upon us now in anger and disgust? His providence, our birthright and our creed Will we let ignorance and laziness bring our demise? Complacency, we're blinded by our greed It's time for us, to open up our eyes And cherish the lives we all can have And to the ones who kept our freedom free Words can't express all that you've done Would he look upon us now in anger and disgust? His providence, our birthright and our creed Will we let ignorance and laziness bring our demise? Complacency, we're blinded by our greed Would he look upon us now in anger and disgust? (will open your eyes) His providence, our birthright and our creed (and look at my last breath) Will we let ignorance and laziness bring our demise? (will open your eyes!) Complacency, we're blinded by our greed
