Boots on the Ground

Letras
I'm imbued with the spirit of the English Tommy

Dunno my kill count it's bigger than the fingers on me

Imma sing a song for the memory that lingers on

When everything is gone and makes grown men scream for mommy

You've never seen a zombie until you've seen your best friend

Trying to scoop his intestines back into his bleeding tummy

Muffled battle tunes hum and rattle through the shrapnel wounds

Crushing out the fluid of the fruits of war like apple juice

Thickly trickle all down the tricolour flag that's in tatters

Its fabric is ragged and haggard telling a France that is shattered

That there's still a thread of hope somewhere through the telescope

It's difficult to tell it though invisible there's hella smoke

That'll envelop and choke a delicate bloke into silence

So telling a joke is a method of coping with violence

You're thrown into darkness when even the stars are going out

Fifty million little candles blown out

This is it you already know

It's okay just get ready go

Your life gotta lay it down

Ain't no time to play around everybody say it loud

I sacrifice myself

I commit to the cause no hesitation

Fight 'til there's no one left

I am leading the charge against a nation

Ain't gonna die fighting in a war that I am bound

Aim for the sky but I'm keeping my boots on the ground

Gotta get my mind right mission storm the beach of Normandy

Sent a letter to my family and told them orally

Before I left that I'd be coming back so we can normally

Return to our routine resume the spot that I was formerly

This isn't what I do the majority of the time

I am morally intact abnormal to me the grime

But these are different days I grab my weapon clammily

Insanity is war but I do it for my family

Focus on the task block the chatter and profanity

Of other soldiers on the craft screaming of calamity

Disappear into a canopy of tragic fantasies

Where I don't make it back getting crushed by the gravity of that reality

I won't put them through the agony

Of growing up without a father teach them how a man should be

Pull yourself together soldier heart is beating rapidly

And if you're gonna survive you're gonna need a strategy

Knuckle up it's time

You're pushing through the casualty

Keep your aim true turn them into shooting galleries

Unleashing a battery you don't need no cavalry

This is war and we're fighting for our families

I sacrifice myself

I commit to the cause no hesitation

Fight 'til there's no one left

I am leading the charge against a nation

Ain't gonna die fighting in a war that I am bound

Aim for the sky but I'm keeping my boots on the ground

This day have set upon a mighty endeavor

A struggle to preserve our republic

And our civilization

Success may not come with rushing speed

But we shall return again and again

Until the victory is won

Is won

Is won

Is won

Is won

Is won

Is won

Is won
