New song I heard this morning

[Stitch62679]

I hear people saying, we don't need this war
I say there some things worth fightin' for.
What about our freedom and this peace of ground?
We didn't get to keep em by backing down.
Now they say we don't realize the mess we're getting in,
Before you start your preaching let me ask you this my friend.

Have you forgotten how it felt that day?
To see your homeland under fire and her people blown away
Have you forgotten when those towers fell?
We had neighbors still inside going thru a living hell.
And you say we shouldn't worry bout Bin Laden.
Have you forgotten?


I took all the footage off my TV
Said it's too disturbing for you and me.
It'll just breed anger that's what the experts say
If it was up to me I'd show it everyday.
Some say this country is just looking for a fight
Well after 9/11 man I'd have to say that's right.

I've been there with the soldiers who've gone away to war
And you can bet that they remember just what their fighting for.

Have you forgotten all the people killed
Yea some went down like hero's in that Pennsylvania field.
Have you forgotten about our pentagon
And all the loved ones that we lost
And those left to carry on
Don't you tell me know to worry bout Bin Laden.
Have you forgotten?

Good, if Saddening and thought Provoking Song

Don't think I could listen to it without bawlin my eyes out tho, kind of like that other song about 9/11. Think it's called "On the Phone" (goes something like I'm already there, like the shadow on the ground" ect). I hear that song @ work or even in the mall or something and I start to tear up.

Nice find, stitch, thanks.. gotta go look this one up on WINMX

Most definately! CDB has done some of the best for the longest. I was at his concert when he was first testing "last fallen hero" for the new album
