Live and Die a Marine

Tommy Bass, Victoria Banks

Live And Die A Marine

I was 16 when the towers tumbled down
And in that moment my mission was found
The brotherhood where I was born to be
To live and to die a marine

My high school lost a warrior in Iraq
So they all tried to change my mind, they tried to turn me back
But I said don't you think I know that's what it means
To live and to die a marine

It takes people like me who are willing to fight
Who are willing to pay the sacrifice
So people like you can protest in the streets
Some people can wonder their whole life
If they made a difference by being alive
For them it's a problem, for us it's never gonna be
Cause it's not a job it's an identity
To live and to die a marine

My heroes walked in boots the same as these
Their names carved into dog tags running back through history
I've done my best to live their legacy
To live and to die a marine

Repeat Chorus

At Pendleton a building bears my name
Why not any of the others whose sacrifice was the same?
We all stood up to keep our country free
We lived and we died a marine

It's the brotherhood where I was born to be
To live and to die a marine
