Lyrics For This I Sing - Tackhead

For This I Sing

Called away in my prime of life
Involved in a thing that was no way right
If you know what I mean
War it’s a heavy thing
My momma I knew she’d take it real bad
I was the very first son she had
Chorus: Up the next morning a brand new day
The day the called me to go away
To serve my country sweet tears of me
Why can’t we live in harmony
For this I sing
I’ve got to make a decision
Am I gonna live my life for this country
When so many people have nothing
So many people still suffering
This is a place with so much to give
Where a few have it all and the rest don’t have any
I’ve got to make a decision
Am I gonna give my life for this nation
When there’s so many people still suffering
The higher up goes the call to live
What are they gonna do with us all
Write our names on another black wall
Chorus: Up the next morning a brand new day
The day I didn’t go away
To serve my country sweet tears of me
Why can’t we live in harmony
For this I sing
