Postcard noahmadethiss by Kennedyxoxo Lyrics
And when i get there ima send u a postcard
I've always been right there
We've never been so far
I wish that i could promise you it wouldn't be so hard
But ima send u a postcard
When he got drafted he was 17
They gave him a gun but he dont even know what heaven means
And he promised to his mom to live forever like an evergreen
He faked a smile, told a lie, he's terrified but she would never see
She said that he'd be fine
When he was leaving she could hardly look him in the eyes
He said believe me mama ik im too young to die
I'm sure that i'll be fine
And he had to pack his things, he's out the door
Had to tell his mom goodbye, he's off to war
He didn't even know what he was fighting for
Didn't even know what he was fighting for
They told him pick ur head up boy nd suck it up
You only had one life but they fucked it up! :(
You can try nd kick nd scream its not enough
Ur momma's lil soilder boy just toughen up
(chorus)
And when i get there ima send u a postcard
I've always been right there
We've never been so far
I wish that i could promise you it wouldn't be so hard
But ima send u a postcard
X2
There's no point in asking for help
He did anything and everything for everyone else
Just thought that one day he'd get home and have a story to tell
He'd never kill another soldier, they reminded him too much of himself
Nd thought his thinking was ahead of his time
But one day he was caught behind enemy lines
They put a gun up to his head, he wasn't ready to die
But he was fine, instead he looked them dead in the eyes and said
(chorus)
And when i get there ima send u a postcard
