Aaron Estel - Still Standing Ground Lyrics

Through the fire, through the fall
Watched heroes turn to protocol
But duty runs deeper than a badge
Some things time just cannot scratch
(Cannot scratch)

Enhanced reflexes, upgraded sight
But the mission stays black and white
Protect the ones who can't fight back
Keep moving forward, never track
(Never look back)

Still standing guard
When the walls came down
Still holding the line
When no one's around
They can strip the ranks
They can shut the doors
But they can't take the soldier
They can't change my core
(Change my core)

Circuit paths light up my veins
But my heart beats just the same
For every civilian caught in the dark
For every promise falling apart
(Falling apart)

They thought the mission died with the dream
But they don't understand what it means
To carry the weight, to bear the load
To walk this electromagnetic road

Aim true, shoot straight
No time to hesitate
When justice needs a hand
I'm still the one who stands
(The one who stands)

Still standing guard
When the walls came down
Still holding the line
When no one's around
They can strip the ranks
They can shut the doors
But they can't take the soldier
They can't change my core
(Change my core)

The future's coming fast
But my aim is true at last
Some missions never fade
Some soldiers never break
(Never break)
