(Schaffer)



Close your eyes and imagine 

the soldier at Valley Forge 

The suffering that he endured was real 

starvation, total war. 

Yet in has eyes the iron will to win 

and for the cause, he won't relent 



(Chorus) 

Would he look upon us now in anger and disgust 

His politics a birthright and our creed

Will we let ignorance and laziness bring our demise 

Complacency, we're blinded by our greed 



Standing barefoot, frozen bloody hands 

his musket clutched, an iron grip 

and for the cause, he has but one regret, 

he's only got one life to give 



(Chorus) 

Would he look upon us now in anger and disgust 

His politics a birthright and our creed

Will we let ignorance and laziness bring our demise 

Complacency, we're blinded by our greed 



It's time for us, to open up our eyes, 

and cherish the lives we all can have 

and to the ones who kept our freedom free 

words can't express all that you've done 



(Chorus) 

Would he look upon us now in anger and disgust 

His politics a birthright and our creed

Will we let ignorance and laziness bring our demise 

Complacency, we're blinded by our greed
