When this man is in his zone, he doesn't care about his life
all he his focused on is the person he has lined up in his sights
slowly taking his aim, holding in his breath
he takes one shot to the chest, instant death
everyone flees the sight, in hopes of not getting hit
one runs across the street, sniper pegs him in the hip
his leg shatters in two. crawling in his own blood
the second shot goes off, all you hear is a thud
straight in the head, is were the sniper shot
hes fighting for his life, he tried and he lost
another life gone, vanished into the air
the second wave is coming the men must prepare
this time there is no mercy, its a all out attack
3rd cavalry is fighting straight on, while the seals sneak in from the back
while the seals are setting up their main defenses
3rd cavalry is making peace with their gods, while dug in their trenches
every single soul is thinking of what they have back at home
it brings joy to them in knowing that they aren't alone
the confidence that they need is rising in them tremendously
nothing will ever stop these men from fighting hard and immensely
as the final wave approaches, heavy machine guns and grenades are locked and ready
"alright men when your shooting, aim for the head and keep your aim steady"
our words of wisdom coming in from the back, trying to give us advice
you can not freeze at any point in war, you need to be accurate and precise
it's now or never the opposition has arrived
is up to you now whether or not you want to die
