Only The Warriors
Lyrics
ONLY THE WARRIORS
Mark Patterson & Lee Parvin © 2022

One came from the heart of the city
The other was fresh off the farm
They'd never met but they heard the threat
And answered the call to arms
In the cold hard light of the day
Only some will run towards the fight
They fought for the men on their left and the men on their right

Only the warriors - are willing to live their lives that way
They've been doing their part right from the start
And they won't back away
For our freedom - it's the ultimate price they're willing to pay
Only a few can live their lives the warrior's way

They became brothers and then there was one
The other was taken one day
They knew in advance there was always that chance
When you spend your life in harm's way
To sacrifice all and watch your brother fall
Not many can do what they do
They put their lives on the line for me and you

Only the warriors - are willing to live their lives that way
They've been doing their part right from the start
And they won't back away
For our freedom - it's the ultimate price they're willing to pay
Only a few can live their lives the warrior's way

Only the warriors
Only the warriors
