Celebrating freedom
Celebrating life
Cherishing the day I became a law enforcement wife
It taught me many lessons I once did not know
Giving me strength and lots of room to grow
Blessings flooded my home, although I could not see
My life is calm yet dangerous
Just like the God made sea
Making new enemies and shaping new friends
Understanding this balance helps me to comprehend
Honoring my husband and his brothers of blue
The world can sleep at night because of what they do
The world is dark, but there is light
Open your eyes
It's a pleasing sight
I'm gratified to be called a peacekeeper
It's not an easy role
I am soft but hard as a bullet
I hold this line together when the world is out of control
