Bounty Land

Listen up and listen well
To a story I must tell
Of ages long ago
A legacy you must know
Where you live, love, run and play
Men were broken and blown away
In foreign places and distant lands
Where we fought and fell but took our stand
Now our lives are solemn and real
And this ground is where we kneel

Look in the eyes of forever
And see what the future holds
No more searching and longing
Those times of past were told
We live and build for tomorrow
The child now must grow
So stand up and stake your claim

I'm part of you, you're part of me
That my son you can clearly see
In your eyes, I see the fire
To know it burns with your desire
From the clan of holloman you've grown
A fierce leader and a man of his own
Listen now and I'll tell you how
What made me and what made you

And I know there's tomorrow
I see it burning in your eyes
Don't dwell on the sorrow
Only the strong survive
Generations past still believing
The young boy will rise
So sign up and take your claim

As we cruise down the runway
Tonight it's a bumpy ride
I'm not at the wheel tonight, boys
Let's all get home alive

The message came today
"We regret to inform you..."
This is for the fallen
Your son has passed away

Oh lord, I go down to the valley
And wash in the cleansing pool
No more dreams of tomorrow
No more legacy
But now rise from the waters

So now bound for the mountain
To the top I'll rise
No more searching and longing
On this land I will thrive
To the top of the mountain
All below I see
I must rebuild this family
On bounty land
