The Price

 

The dust blows

A dry

Ravaged land

As if mother earth

Was having her pay back

For the war fought on her land

For her earth

Constantly being socked

With blood

And being shot up

By man

Slowly killing her

 

As we walk down the street

Wandering

What they hold

For us today

If more of my brothers

Will be going home

In a box

One wrong step

And they’re goners for them

 

To a place

Where there’s peace

No war

No fighting

No blood soaked earth

Happiness all around

 

A war that’s bin raged

For freedom

The right to live

Freedom

For all.

But at what price?

 

Killing mother earth is

The price

OK, I think you meant "soaked" instead of "socked."

"As we walk down the street
Wandering
What they hold
For us today
If more of my brothers
Will be going home
In a box
One wrong step
And they're goners for them"

I really don't think that that paragraph needs to be in there. First of all, I'm getting confused by what you're saying in this. Is it wandering or wondering? Also, what does "one wrong step" have to do with killing Mother Earth?
