ZACH POV
I hope that whenever I get dressed for a mission I will be able to come home again and have a karaoke night with Cam to our favorite song that during our senior year she decided to turn into a duet with a few minor changes to the original song American Soldier by Toby Keith. I may stop the song at times and tell you things that this song makes me think of but our version of the song goes a little like this:
I'm just trying to be a father
Raise a daughter and a son
Be a lover to their mother
Everything to everyone
Everyone expects me to be the strong one in any given situation but for me it is not that simple and sometimes I think the only one who understands that is my Gallagher Girl, because the same thing happens to her. All I want for a few years at least is for Cammie, the twins and I to have nice, normal family time. However that can never happen in the profession we have chosen now can it?
Up and at 'em bright and early
More business in my suit
And we're dressed up for success
From our comms down to our boots
With me constantly working how can my family ever expect for anything to be normal? I luckily so far have been blessed enough to have been able to come home after each mission I have received so far.
We don't do it for the money
There's bills that we can't pay
We don't do it for the glory
We just do it anyway
We however with both of us being spies make more than enough to pay for our bills and we do our job because we love doing it since it helps save innocent lives. We just didn't want to completely screw up the song.
Providing for our future's, our responsibility
Yeah we're real good under pressure
Being all that we can be
No matter how high priority the case we handle everything with the best we have. Sometimes the pressure to get the job done is what keeps us moving when we want to give up hope.
We can't call in sick on Mondays
When the weekends get too strong
We just work straight through the holidays
Sometimes all night long
We may not always be around when our kids need us but someday they will understand. We learned that no matter what our families come first, jobs second, then party time with our pals from our days at Blackthorne and Gallagher.
You can bet that we stand ready
When the wolf growls at the door
Yeah we're solid and we're steady
And we're true down to the core
No matter what we will be loyal to our team and country no matter what happens. We hope this will always stay true until the day our last breath.
I will always do my duty no matter what
The price I've counted up the cost
I know the sacrifice
Oh and I don't wanna die for you but if dying is
Asking me I'll bear that cross with honor cuz
Freedom don't come free
I don't want to die on a mission but if it's me or millions of people I choose myself to die.
I'm an American Spy an American
Beside our brothers and
Our sisters we will proudly
Take a stand when Liberty's
In jeopardy we will always do
What's right we're out here on the
Front lines so sleep in peace tonight
American Spy we're American Spies
(except this one she's British)
Together we Blackthorne Boys and Gallagher Girls will protect the innocent people of our country since Americans work together. Even though she is British Bex still promised to help us.
Yeah American Spies American
Beside our brothers and
Our sisters we will proudly
Take a stand when Liberty's
In jeopardy we will always do
What's right we're out here on the
Front lines so sleep in peace tonight
American Spy we're American Spies
We're American
We're American
We're American Spies
(except for this one she's British)
Together we Blackthorne Boys and Gallagher Girls will protect the innocent people of our country since Americans work together. Even though she is British Bex still promised to help us.
This song was also one we performed as a group when the director of the CIA came to Gallagher for a visit. Sadly it was not my idea to perform it. Cammie was the genius behind that performance.
