And here are the lyrics:


THE WARRIOR SONG Lyrics and Music © 2009 by Sean Householder / Echo Sonic Music, ASCAP

I’ve got the reach and the teeth of a killin’ machine, with a need to bleed you when the light goes green best believe, I’m in a zone to be, from my Yin to my Yang to my Yang Tze Put a grin on my chin when you come to me, ‘cuz I’ll win, I’m a one-of-a-kind and I’ll bring death to the place you’re about to be: another river of blood runnin’ under my feet

Forged in a fire lit long ago, stand next to me, you’ll never stand alone, I’m last to leave, but the first to go, Lord, make me dead before you make me old. I feed on the fear of the devil inside of the enemy faces in my sight. Aim with the hand, shoot with the mind, kill with a heart like arctic ice

I am a soldier and I’m marching on, I am a warrior and this is my song

I bask in the glow of the rising war, lay waste to the ground of an enemy shore, wade through the blood spilled on the floor, and if another one stands I’ll kill some more bullet in the breach and a fire in me like a cigarette thrown to gasoline, if death don’t bring you fear, I swear, you’ll fear these marchin’ feet.

Come to the nightmare, come to me, deep down in the dark where the devil be in the maw with the jaws and the razor teeth, where the brimstone burns and the angel weeps call to the gods if I cross your path and my silhouette hangs like a body bag hope is a moment now long past, the shadow of death is the one I cast.

I am a soldier and I’m marching on, I am a warrior and this is my song My eyes are steel and my gaze is long, I am a warrior and this is my song

Now, I live lean and I mean to inflict the grief, and the least of me is still out of your reach, the killing machine’s gonna do the deed, until the river runs dry and my last breath leaves. Chin in the air with a head held high, I’ll stand in the path of the enemy line, feel no fear, know my pride: for God and Country I’ll end your life

I am a soldier and I’m marching on, I am a warrior and this is my song My eyes are steel and my gaze is long, I am a warrior and this is my song
"Given enough time, any man may master the physical. With enough knowledge, any man may become wise.

Tagaturo,

I was recently signaled to hear and see this song. Thank you very much for posting it, so that I have it readily at hand.

Sincerely,
Bill

My pleasure. Also as a vet you can download the song for free at their website ( thewarriorsong.com ). Also, tell anyone else interested that they can get it on iTunes for .99 and all proceeds go to those serving now.

I think the lyrics are very strong...
Respects,

Rob

In a time of crisis, an individual will not rise to the occasion but will instead sink to his level of training, so the better the training, the better the chances of survival...

"Of every 100 men in battle, 10 should not even be there. 80 are nothing more than targets. 9 of them are fighters, we are lucky to have them, they the battle make. Ah, but the one. One of them is a warrior..... and he will bring the others back."

Indeed. It was even more meaningful to me that a warrior such as yourself shared it with me!

Thank you again, Tagaturo, I just listened to it twice again -- maybe it's that old maudlin thing happening while I listen.

Sincerely,
Bill
