Respect

Lyrics

Old wood floors… And 3 high tables. Bar maid pours… From whiskey labels. Men of war… Now rusty angels. A time before… Fallen halos. These men lead… With reputation… Their pride needs… No explanation. They did for me… Their generation… Our flag is free… One God one nation. I don't know how… To show respect. I know somehow… I might regret. I stare & now… They suspect. My head just bowed… A bit direct. These men lead… With reputation… Their pride needs… No explanation. They did for me… Their generation… Our flag is free… One God one nation. The old one looked… At me with pause. I just stood… Without a cause. My pride was true… But still felt flawed. He just knew… Respect & awe. These men lead… With reputation… Their pride needs… No explanation. They did for me… Their generation… Our flag is free… One God one nation. We never met… But I now see. It's with regret… I let it be. I should have said… More carefully. My respect… Is my decree. My thanks to you… I am me. Because of you… We are free. Respect is due… To you I see. My thanks to you… My son will be. These men lead… With reputation… Their pride needs… No explanation. They did for me… Their generation… Our flag is free… One God one nation.
