Honor Bound Marines

To every brother who wore the dress blues

Active, retired, veteran, this is for you.

We see the sacrifice,

we feel the weight.

To all our brothers in the Marine Corps...

salute.

From the yellow footprints to the sand and the clay You stood

on the line when they told you to stay.

Active duty on the watch,

keeping us secure, Retired and veterans,

your legacy is pure.

You gave up your youth for the flag and the land,

With a rifle in your grip and the dirt in your hand.

A brotherhood forged in the heat of the fire,

Semper Fi to the end,

never ready to retire.

Thank you for your service,

thank you for the pain,

Standing in the storm,

marching in the rain.

To our lost brothers,

we won't forget your name,

We carry your honor,

we keep alive the flame.

Yeah, this is to you all,

the brothers in the Corps.

Now I'm looking at the sky for the ones who fell,

Who walked through the valley,

who stood in the hell.

We haven't forgotten the ultimate price,

The gold star families,

the cold sacrifice. Your honor is safe in the hearts that still

beat, No distance or time can make us retreat.

You laid it all down so that we could stand free,

We salute your memory from sea to shining sea.

Thank you for your service,

thank you for the pain,

Standing in the storm,

marching in the rain.

To our lost brothers,

we won't forget your name,

We carry your honor,

we keep alive the flame.

Yeah, this is to you all,

the brothers in the Corps.

We remember you. Semper Fidelis.

To all my brothers...

Rest easy.
