I was younger than you are now
When I was given my first command
I led my men straight into a massacre
I witnessed their deaths firsthand
I made every mistake
And felt the shame rise in me
And even now I lie awake
When I was given my first command
I led my men straight into a massacre
I witnessed their deaths firsthand
I made every mistake
And felt the shame rise in me
And even now I lie awake
Knowing history has its eyes on me
History has its eyes on me.
Whoa…
Whoa…
Whoa…
Yeah
Whoa…
Whoa…
Yeah
Whoa…
Whoa…
Whoa…
Yeah
Let me tell you what I wish I’d known
When I was young and dreamed of glory:
You have no control:
Who lives, who dies, who tells your story
I know that we can win
I know that greatness lies in you
But remember from here on in
I know that greatness lies in you
But remember from here on in
History has its
Eyes on you.
Eyes on you.
Whoa…
Whoa…
Whoa…
History has its eyes on you
