Shiver
o.w. Lyrics

When he was young his father died
At a young age, his father passed away

Fighting for our country's pride
While defending our nation's honor

When he finally became a man
Once he reached adulthood

He chose to fight for Uncle Sam
He made the decision to serve his country

His platoon was ordered off to war
His unit received instructions to engage in combat

Traveled through the night to a foreign shore
They journeyed under the cover of darkness to an unfamiliar land

They fought with honor and sacrifice
They engaged in battle with integrity and selflessness

We won the battle but he lost his life
Although their side emerged victorious, he tragically lost his own life

When she was young she lost her mom
During her early years, she experienced the loss of her mother

Who gave her life in Vietnam
Her mother made the ultimate sacrifice for her country in Vietnam

She became a sailor refused to quit
She joined the navy and displayed unwavering determination

Now she proudly defends her ship
Currently, she staunchly protects and safeguards her vessel

Then one day they sailed across the seas
On a specific day, they embarked on a voyage across the oceans

To engage and take down the enemy
Their purpose was to confront and defeat the opposition

The battle raged and peace would win
A fierce conflict ensued, but ultimately, peace emerged victorious

But she lost five of her best friends
Regrettably, she suffered the loss of five close companions

And When I see our flag
When I catch sight of our nation's flag

Hear our country's song
Listen to the anthem that represents our nation

I know there's a soldier
I am aware that a brave soldier

Leaving their home
Is departing from their place of residence

To go fight for freedom
To engage in battle in defense of liberty

And the red white and blue
And the colors of the American flag

America thanks you
The nation expresses gratitude towards these individuals

And we may not know their names
We might not be acquainted with their identities

But they haven't died in vain
Their deaths were not without purpose

And we may not be the ones to go fight
While we may not personally partake in the battle

But we can honor their sacrifice
We can pay tribute to their selfless act

America, America
Ode to America, symbol of freedom

God shed His grace on thee
May divine favor be bestowed upon the nation

And crown thy good
And honor the virtuous endeavors

With brotherhood
Through fostering unity and fraternity

From sea to shining sea
From one coast to another, spanning the entire land
