Solder Can't Hesitate With Each Day that passes,
Nothing even Death, will overcome them or Even take our Men's lives and sprits,
And Nothing can stop them, from coming home to the ones they love

1. "more better" isn't proper grammar. It's just "better".

Soldier couldn't hesitate with each passing day,
Nothing, not even death, they will not overcome
Not even take our men's lives and spirits,
And nothing can stop them, from coming home to the ones they love.

And, here is another revision for you. I hope that you like it and that it is close to what you are trying to communicate. I was trying to figure out what you were trying to convey as far as the meaning. That's why I added the extra words. If adding them is not helpful to you in conveying what you are trying to communicate, then I do apologize.

Solders can't hesitate with each day that passes,
For the road is long and hard for them,
Being always on guard and ever watchful of their backs...

Nothing, not even death, will overcome them
Or overtake their spirits and will to live.
And, nothing can stop them from coming home to the ones they love!

simoneaugie agrees: Awesome, Clough.
ChihuahuaMomma agrees: Much better than mine, I'm not a writer, I mostly corrected SOME grammar, and spelling.

Hey, thanks! I gave it my best shot! That was mighty nice of you both with the positive comments! But, we will have to see what Dreams of lies thinks...
