[Verse]
Stars on the flag, they stitched my scars,
Fought overseas, now I battle for cars.
GI Bill ain't payin' these bars,
Land of the free, but they taxin' our Mars.
PTSD, can't rest my dome,
Medals on my chest but no welcome home.
VA lines long like a Netflix scroll,
Tryna heal the body but they patch the soul.
[Prechorus]
Promises made, but they crumble in dust,
They say "thank you," but where’s the trust?
[Chorus]
Veteran rights, where they at, where they go?
Fought for the red, white, stars in the show.
Benefits promised, but the system moves slow,
We gave all, now we reap what they sow.
[Verse 2]
Section 8 housing, but the roof still leaks,
Claim denied, now I’m broke for weeks.
Legislation drafted, but the ink don’t speak,
They salute the flag, but my voice they tweak.
Disability checks, they come in late,
Twenty-two a day, that's a deadly rate.
Told us we heroes, then they shut the gate,
Left us in the cold, now we scrape the plate.
