He saved a lot of lives by doing that, the media didn't cover the story We are proud to have Raul Mendez join us tonight
To actually get up from a you know head shot wound and pull out my own firearm and you know eliminate the threat right then and there
Um so, with your eye shot out, you were able to eliminate the gunman, to shoot the gun man
Did what any father, friend, husband would do and just you know protect it's own
Seems like only yesterday our existence took a turn Encapsulated in our own joy, oblivious and alone I nearly lost your grip on me, almost lost you in the tide We teetered on the edge of loss, with no hope in sight Almost loosing you and you loosing me, back in 22
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust Always be careful of who you trust You don't know where they came from and you never know So, ashes to ashes, just let it go, let it go
The cries of fear and minds unclear will hold you in a freeze Not knowing what is going on, blind of what's ahead Bullets flying, pulses pounding, unsure if it's the end Tonight the night it's fight or flight, rest asure that I've got mine On that fateful day, the 3rd of July, back in 22
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust Always be careful of who you trust You don't know where they came from and you never know So, ashes to ashes, just let it go, let it go
And through the scars, I've learned to see, the trusted souls that's stand, stand by me
