American Strong ft. Christian Joseph Lyrics

Holding up our hands for a fallen man

As he goes by

Tears falling down everybody's face

But we don't cry

On your way home from Afghanistan

As the flags don't fly

People really don't even understand

What you sacrifice

Ya I want to know

What we were even over there fighting for

Yeah I want to know

Why you were treated cold as you're coming home

As the masses begin to cry disgrace

And ole glory's colors begin to fade

Seems like our backs are up against the wall

And as division breaks the confidence

Patriots still stand for our defense

Your sacrifice will answer for it all

We'll keep walking on

American strong

They need me sir she starts to say its just another day

Another baby born without a dad as he's blown away

It's something in their heart they'd always do

As a U.S marine

And never think twice about the sacrifice

That their gonna make

Ya I want to know

Why they folded cards with the flag you've all sown

Ya I want to know

Why your mothers cries were unheard and unknown

As the masses begin to cry disgrace

And ole glory's colors begin to fade

Seems like our backs are up against the wall

And as division breaks the confidence

Patriots still stand for our defense

Your sacrifice will answer for it all

We'll keep walking on

American strong

American strong

As long as taps plays we wont forget what it means to be

A red blooded American in a free country

While others out there might disrespect what all that means

We'll fly the flag proud remembering that freedom rings

It rings

'Cause I want you to know

We wont back down cause we know what were fighting for

Yeah I want you to know

It's the land of the free while the brave still call it home

The masses wont let is face disgrace

And ole glory's colors we wont let fade

We will fight even when our backs against the wall

Believers will stand with confidence

And patriots will stand for our defense

Your sacrifice wont ever let us fall

So we'll keep walking on

Marching on

American strong

American strong
