We stand alone as we always do
Our allies but shadows in the night
We carry the torch of liberty
No matter our desire to fight
We are the caretakers for humanity
Despite the burden it does create
Loved and hated for all we are
From the beginning it has been our fate
Although we yearn for love and peace
Evil minds seek our ultimate end
They bring terror and murder without regard
To stop them our troops we do now send
While we are far from being ourselves perfect
We remain the symbol of those free
Like the past we’ll sacrifice for all others
Praying those less fortunate will know our liberty
