[00:06.470] Been home about six months now [00:10.060] But I still have my doubts [00:14.150] Well I'm not sure how I got here [00:17.730] Or how I'm gonna get out [00:20.820] My mama says I look the same [00:23.980] As I did before I left [00:27.330] But if she could see inside of me [00:31.200] It would scare her to death [00:34.560] I can still taste the powder [00:37.740] From the barrel of my gun [00:41.150] I can hear my sergeant screaming [00:48.100] I can feel the backpack on my shoulders [00:52.390] God it weighed a ton [00:55.430] And I see death in every single thought [01:02.490] They taught me how to put that uniform on [01:07.290] I just can't get it off [01:16.570] Last Saturday they honored us [01:20.220] In a small parade downtown [01:23.370] And when they shot off those fireworks [01:26.840] I nearly hit the ground [01:30.300] And while they smiled and cheered for us [01:33.960] All I could do was stare [01:37.250] Cause part of me is here at home [01:40.930] And part of me is back there [01:44.220] I can still taste the powder [01:47.460] From the barrel of my gun [01:50.850] I can hear my sergeant screaming [01:57.980] I can feel the backpack on my shoulders [02:01.720] God it weighed a ton [02:04.960] And I see death in every single thought [02:12.200] They taught me how to put that uniform on [02:17.300] I just can't get it off [02:22.340] Yeah there's no end in sight [02:25.980] Cause even though I'm home now [02:28.900] I'm still fighting for my life [02:36.330] I can still taste the powder [02:39.820] From the barrel of my gun [02:43.360] I can hear my sergeant screaming [02:47.100] "Run, soldier, run" [02:50.270] I can feel the backpack on my shoulders [02:53.930] God it weighed a ton [02:57.390] And I see death in every single thought [03:04.210] They taught me how to put that uniform on [03:09.430] I just can't get it off [03:18.030] Well the devil's won some battles [03:21.420] And he may win some more [03:24.070] But don't he know the American soldier [03:29.100] Will always win the war
