The evil
Soldier wakes from is slumber starting a new day
Daily struggle pushing the feelings of anguish away
Cause the rich rage war and it cripples the poor
Glorious stories cloak the truth of blood and gore
Loved ones back home on the young soldiers mind
Wondering if he made the right choice left the opportunities behind
The picture reminds him of his greatest joy.. His son
Tanner and his wife becca fade away as he grabs his gun
Grabs his bag and hustles out with his brothers In arm
Gunshots break the silence like a smoke alarm
Men fall on his sides as he watches bullets hit his Sargent
He can tell from the sound that they found their target
President declares war for his own gain
Doesn't matter to him that his actions cause pain
Through our clouded judgement evil has risen to fame
No one sees the truth of his vicious intentions
The truth is evil not the lies that he mention
Through our clouded judgement evil has risen to fame
Evil has risen to fame
Fear fills the mind of the young soldier who has all to live for
He wishes the violence to cease yet the bullets proclaim more
Bullet hits his shoulder yet he pushes through the fight
Battle never resides through the day and the night
Young tanner's face pops into the soldiers thoughts
Fingers grasp around the gun his government bought
The fear of death takes a grip on his heart
His leader was the enemy from the start
Pushes through clutching the hope of return
Like his life is the leaders concern?
The only thing hoped for is personal gain
The leaders intentions cause the young soldier pain
President declares war for his own gain
Doesn't matter to him that his actions cause pain
Through our clouded judgement evil has risen to fame
No one sees the truth of his vicious intentions
The truth is evil not the lies that he mention
Through our clouded judgement evil has risen to fame
Evil has risen to fame
