We in a war with no end
we in a war but say we just defend
yet hundreds of thousands of troops we send
how many will be in a casket at the end
Ya see I support the troops
I love the troops
When the time comes i wanna be a troop
So dont say im against america cuz i speak the truth
see, everyday the news shows me proof
the war is over, just bring them home
hopefully before they get one in the dome

We gotta END THIS NOW
before the world comes crashin down
We gotta END THIS NOW
before another body hits the ground
We gotta END THIS NOW
this war will end, i vow
We gotta END THIS NOW

Soldiers sign up to protect this land
they didnt sign up to have their blood drip in the sand
it was never part of their plan
Whether the Air Force, Army, or the Jar Head Clan
They fight to protect freedom for OUR home land
Not to get the blood on their hands
I rap for hope so here i stand
begging for you to take a stand
against what's happening in Iran
Just snap outa your trance
and take this stance
Take this chance
To get the troops home
Hopefully before they get one in the dome

We gotta END THIS NOW
before the world comes crashin down
We gotta END THIS NOW
before another body hits the ground
We gotta END THIS NOW
this war will end, i vow
We gotta END THIS NOW

This piece talks about the emotion i believe a lot of people have on this war that America is in, it seems like very few people support the war

Wow! You really luv the troops, don't you? I'm like you: I jsut wish that there, for once and for all, be an end to war. Let peace reign in the midst of bloodshed!
