Mama, Let Me Come Home – Ken Yokoyama
Just Kill Them All
For my country and people
or for God, that was the command
Don’t know the truth
Doesn’t matter, I obeyed
for the sake of my sweet homeland
Being at the front is hell
Always face to face with death
Now I only have regret inside my head
Want to be with my loved ones, I’m scared
Mama, let me come home
Can’t see, I’m blind
Maybe I was bombed, I don’t know
I can’t feel my legs, God help me
The blood that is surrounding me
I know where it’s coming from
I feel my body getting colder
Tell me do I look that bad？
Tell me how much time I have
You keep saying “Shut up, dude you’ll be alright”
Must I die here, somewhere I don’t know？
Mama, let me come home
When I come home dead I’ll be a “war hero”
I’d rather have more time to live my life
And I know it’s too late now there’s nothing more
that I can do
Tell me why I have to pay this price
