One word. CON-TRO-VER-SI-AL.


Verse 1:
I hate war.
As much as anyone.
But I realize
That peace is not always the answer
Sometimes war is the only way
To get your point across to others who won’t listen

Chorus:
War is how we’re here today
War is what made our nation free
War is what brought our country back together
War is sometimes the only option

Verse 2:
Soldiers. Down in Iraq
They believe in freedom
They’re fighting for the aid of others
They die for you, bleed for you
And you just slap it (back) in their face
Are they sacrificing
Their lives in vain for people who don’t even care?

Extended Chorus:
War is how we’re here today
War is what made our nation free
War is what brought our country back together
War is sometimes the only option
War is what rid our world of Nazi rule
War is hell and I agree
But war is better than the hell of slavery
War is sometimes the only option

(Musical Break)

Extended Chorus:
War is how we’re here today
War is what made our nation free
War is what brought out country back together
War is sometimes the only option
War is what rid our world of Nazi rule
War is hell and I agree
But war is better than the hell of slavery
War is sometimes the only option

Bridge:
If your great-great-great granddaddy were here today
And saw you actin’ and protestin’ this way
I just know that he’d be ashamed by what he saw!

(Musical Break)

Bridge 2:
Terrorists! They don’t negotiate!
Gangs! They don’t negotiate!
Communists! They don’t negotiate!
That (enemy) gun in your face
It don’t negotiate! It don’t negotiate!

Extended Chorus:
War is how we’re here today
War is what made our nation free
War is what brought out country back together
War is sometimes the only option
War is what rid our world of Nazi rule
War is hell and I agree
But war is better than the hell of slavery
War is sometimes the only option

End Rap Verse 3:
Don’t you remember the corruption,
When Bin-Laden hit us hard?
Hit us with 9-11,
Left us with a scar.
We’re America, we shouldn’t take no crap.
If’n you hit us first then we’ll hit-cha back, that’s right.
I think now’s the time to even the score,
This angry giant ain’t sleepin’ no more.


Stands firm and bold at on-coming flames
