Bon Jovi - Unbroken ft. The Invictus Games Choir

Video Description

“Unbroken” Feat. The Invictus Games Choir Music and Lyrics By: Jon Bon Jovi Directed by Alex Horwitz Produced by Grasshopper Films The Invictus Games Choir, which is managed and delivered by Help for Heroes, is made up of wounded, injured and sick veterans and serving personnel from all branches and different ranks of the UK Armed Forces, who come together and use the power of music to aid their recovery. The Invictus Games Foundation is the international charity that oversees the development of the Invictus Games, an international adaptive multi-sport event in which wounded, injured or sick armed services personnel and veterans participate. It celebrates the power of sport in recovery and how it can help, physically or psychologically, those suffering from injuries or illness. The Duke, Patron of the Invictus Games Foundation, founded the Invictus Games with the first event taking part in London in 2014. Since then, the Games have been held three other times – in Orlando (2016), Toronto (2017) and Sydney (2018). The fifth Invictus Games, which was due to take place in The Hague in May this year, has been postponed until May/June 2021. https://bonjovi.lnk.to/Unbroken-InvictusGamesChoir Spotify: https://bonjovi.lnk.to/Unbroken-InvictusGamesChoirSM/spotify iTunes: https://bonjovi.lnk.to/Unbroken-InvictusGamesChoirSM/itunes Apple: https://bonjovi.lnk.to/Unbroken-InvictusGamesChoirSM/applemusic Pandora: https://bonjovi.lnk.to/Unbroken-InvictusGamesChoirSM/pandora Tidal: https://bonjovi.lnk.to/Unbroken-InvictusGamesChoirSM/tidal Amazon: https://bonjovi.lnk.to/Unbroken-InvictusGamesChoirSM/amazonmusic // connect// Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bonjovi / https://https://www.instagram.com/weareinvictusgames/ https://www.instagram.com/sussexroyal Twitter: https://twitter.com/BonJovi / https://twitter.com/royalfamily / https://www.twitter.com/weareinvictus Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BonJovi Website: http://www.bonjovi.com // lyrics // I WAS BORN TO BE OF SERVICE BASIC TRAINING JUST FELT LIKE HOME I HAD HONOR I FOUND PURPOSE SIR YES SIR THAT’S WHAT I KNOW THEY SENT US TO A PLACE I NEVER HEARD OF WEEKS BEFORE WHEN YOU’RE 19 IT AIN’T HARD TO SLEEP IN THE DESERT ON GOD’S FLOOR CLOSE YOUR EYES STOP COUNTING SHEEP YOU AIN’T IN BASIC ANY MORE WE WERE TAUGHT TO SHOOT OUR RIFLES MEN AND WOMEN SIDE BY SIDE THOUGHT WE’D BE MET AS LIBERATORS IN A THOUSAND YEAR OLD FIGHT I GOT THIS PAINFUL RINGING IN MY EAR FROM AN IED LAST NIGHT BUT NO LEAD LINED HUMVEE WAR MACHINE COULD SAVE MY SERGEANTS LIFE 3 MORE SOLDIERS 6 CIVILIANS NEED THESE WORDS TO COME OUT RIGHT GOD OF MERCY, GOD OF LIGHT SAVE YOUR CHILDREN FROM THIS LIFE HEAR THESE WORDS THIS HUMBLE PLEA FOR I HAVE SEEN THE SUFFERING AND WITH THIS PRAYER I’M HOPING THAT WE CAN BE UNBROKEN IT’S 18 MONTHS NOW I’VE BEEN BACK NOW WITH THIS MEDAL ON MY CHEST BUT THERE ARE THINGS I CAN’T REMEMBER AND THERE ARE THINGS I WON’T FORGET I LIE AWAKE AT NIGHT WITH DREAMS THE DEVIL SHOULDN’T SEE I WANT TO SCREAM BUT I CAN’T BREATHE AND CHRIST I’M SWEATING THROUGH THESE SHEETS WHERE’S MY BROTHERS WHERE’S MY COUNTRY WHERE’S MY HOW THINGS USED TO BE GOD OF MERCY, GOD OF LIGHT SAVE YOUR CHILDREN FROM THIS LIFE HEAR THESE WORDS THIS HUMBLE PLEA FOR I HAVE SEEN THE SUFFERING AND WITH THIS PRAYER I’M HOPING THAT WE CAN BE UNBROKEN MY SERVICE DOGS DONE MORE FOR ME THAN THE MEDICATION WOULD THERE AIN’T NO ANGEL THAT’S COMING TO SAVE ME BUT EVEN IF THEY COULD TODAY 22 WILL DIE FROM SUICIDE JUST LIKE YESTERDAY THEY’RE GONE I LIVE MY LIFE FOR EACH TOMORROW SO THEIR MEMORIES WILL LIVE ON ONCE WE WERE BOYS AND WE WERE STRANGERS NOW WE’RE BROTHERS AND WE’RE MEN SOMEDAY YOU’LL ASK ME WAS IT WORTH IT TO BE OF SERVICE IN THE END WELL THE BLESSING AND THE CURSE IS YEAH, I’D DO IT ALL AGAIN Music video by Bon Jovi performing Unbroken. © 2020 Captain Kidd Corp., under exclusive license to Island Records, a division of UMG Recordings, Inc.
