Verse 1
This ole M4’s been riding by my side,
Through the dust, through the dark, through the firelight.
Scratched-up rail and a worn-out sling,
But she still sings when the steel birds ring.
Chorus
This ole M4, she don’t let me fall,
Through the smoke and thunder, she answers the call.
With a locked-in grip and my boots on the floor,
I trust my life to this ole M4.
Verse 2
Carried her through rain, mud, and sand,
Finger off safe, steady in my hand.
Every scar tells a story I know,
Of brothers beside me and roads we rode.
Chorus
This ole M4, she don’t let me fall,
Through the smoke and thunder, she answers the call.
With a locked-in grip and my boots on the floor,
I trust my life to this ole M4.
Bridge
When the night gets loud and the sky turns red,
I hear the prayers of the brave and the dead.
Not just a rifle, not just steel,
She’s the weight of the oath I feel.
Final Chorus
This ole M4, worn but true,
Been through hell and carried me through.
With my brothers beside me forevermore,
We march with faith and this ole M4.
