Dear Mama

Well I miss you

Dear, Mama I know it's been awhile

Since you saw your baby boy smile

I've been over here in the summer heat

Sand in my boots 110 degrees

They say soon we'll leave

Well I hope so cause I miss the color green

I'm a driver on patrols

People over here don't have souls

This ain't what I signed up for

Fighting someone else's war

I don't wanna die

Hopefully you can see me smile by Christmas time

Dear, Mama twenty is way to young

To pull the trigger on this gun

So when I'm done over here in hell

Just know my mind won't be well

When you see me get off that plane

I'll be carrying all my shame

Dear Mama last night we got attacked

I thought it would be my last

The rockets came raining down

The dust rose from the ground

My eyes flashed all of my past

What I saw was you

Singing to me in my room

Then you gave me a kiss good night and closed the door

Mama come back I don't wanna die

Dear, Mama twenty is way to young

To pull the trigger on this gun

So when I'm done over here in hell

Just know my mind won't be well

When you see me get off that plane

I'll be carrying all my shame

Dear, Mama I know it's been awhile

Since you saw your baby boy smile

They say soon we'll leave

Well I hope so cause I miss the color green
