music & lyrics by jon schaffer close your eyes and imagine the soldier at valley forge the suffering that he endured was real starvation, total war yet in his eyes, the iron will to win and for the cause he won’t relent standing barefoot, frozen bloody hands his musket clutched, an iron grip for the cause he has but one regret that he’s only got one life to give chorus would he look upon us now in anger and disgust? his providence, our birthright and our creed will we let ignorance and laziness bring our demise? complacency, we’re blinded by our greed it’s time for us to open up our eyes and cherish the lives we all can have and to the ones who’ve kept our freedom free words can’t express all that you have done chorus would he look upon us now in anger and disgust? his providence, our birthright and our creed will we let ignorance and laziness bring our demise? complacency, we’re blinded by our greed
