Brother in Arms Lyrics — R.J. Sloane

Brother in Arms is a hard-driving outlaw country anthem about a man who got the text that stops the world — and drove with a vengeance to answer it. His buddy lost a leg saving his life. Our guy came home with the legend; his buddy came home broken. This is for every man who carries a debt he can never fully repay.

VERSE 1

Can't do this anymore
Heart stops at the text
From my brother in arms
He called me legend
Day he took the hit
Supposed to end my life
Lost a leg to save my soul
Jump in the truck
Throw it in drive
Tires squeal
Turn too tight

CHORUS

Military in the rearview
Won't leave a man behind
Owe him my life
No hill I won't charge
No mileage too far
No fight too hard
Do anything for
My brother in arms

VERSE 2

Repeat dial goes unanswered
Dusk swallows the sun
Beams slice through darkness
Hope a thin line
Still breathing — alive
His sacrifice changed my life
Press pedal to the floor
Reckless
Afraid
Running out of time

CHORUS

Military in the rearview
Won't leave a man behind
Owe him my life
No hill I won't charge
No mileage too far
No fight too hard
Do anything for
My brother in arms

BRIDGE

Opened the door
Shadows under his eyes
Look down at his missing leg
Wheels backward with glassy eyes
Step over the threshold
Close the door
Made it just in time

CHORUS

Military in the rearview
Won't leave a man behind
Owe him my life
No hill I won't charge
No mileage too far
No fight too hard
Do anything for
My brother in arms

OUTRO

No hill I won't charge
No mileage too far
No fight too hard
Do anything for
My brother in arms
