Brothers Letra

Twenty-three hours I never slept
Wiped my face, changed my soaking bra, told my body not to feel at all tried to be like you what must I do to prove that I'm a brother too?

I thought RPGs were fireworks, that's how green I was at first Blood blistered feet, black and blue
I slid inside my blood filled boots
Seventy-pound pack plus you on my back
Spilled my blood on the road, man I carried my load
Kept you in my view, I'd die for you
Don't that make me a brother too?

It's okay to cry, that's what you say
But if I do I'm damned anyway
I learned to cry without a sound
Cause I'm afraid you'll put me down

You broke my heart on veterans day
Don't you understand the words you say
You raised a flag for the men you serve
What about the women, what do we deserve?

I was just like you when the bullets flew
I had your back you had mine too
Brothers in arms, your sisters covered you
Don't that make us your brother too?

Say it for me, say it for you
Your sisters are your brothers too
