M-16
Music by Sam Duvall
Lyrics by Jeff Prater & Sam Duvall
WEAPON IN MY HAND…SO FAMILIAR
EVERY CURVE AND KNITCH FIRM AND SMOOTH
SO MANY TIMES…SO MANY FIGHTS
ALL THE EXPLOSIONS STILL RINGIN’ IN MY EAR
THICKNESS OF SMOKE…DIM IN THE LIGHT
THOUGHTS OF YOU CARRY ME THROUGH
HOW DID I GET HERE? …FEELS LIKE I’M STUCK…
CHOICES I’VE MADE DEGRADE THE MAN I KNEW?
AND WHEN I GET HOME
WILL YOU TAKE ME FOR WHO I AM?
AND WHEN I GET TO SEE MY SON
WILL HE BE AFRAID OF WHAT I’VE DONE?
DON’T LEAVE ME HANGIN’, YOU’RE THE ONE I TRUST
I’VE SET MY SIGHTS…MY SIGHTS UP HIGH
IT’S UP TO YOU TO PULL ME THROUGH
LOCKED AND LOADED, TRACER IN THE SKY
QUITE NOW MY LOVE IT’S TIME TO KILL
LETS MAKE SOME NOISE, IMPOSE OUR WILL
CONTROL THE BREATHING…THAT RAG ON HIS HEAD
SCREAMING AS HE RUNS…WE’LL MAKE HIM DEAD
AND WHEN YOU GET HOME
WILL YOU TAKE ME FOR WHO I AM?
AND WHEN I GET TO SEE MY SON
WILL HE BE AFRAID OF WHAT I’VE DONE?
AND WHEN I GET HOME
WILL YOU TAKE ME FOR WHO I AM?
AND WHEN I GET TO SEE MY SON
WILL HE BE AFRAID OF WHAT I’VE DONE?
AND WHEN I GET HOME
WILL YOU TAKE ME FOR WHO I AM?
AND WHEN I GET TO SEE MY SON
WILL EH BE AFRAID OF WHAT I’VE DONE?
WEAPON IN MY HAND…MY M-16
SPEAK NOW MY LOVE…MY M-16
