You've got to lead, don't follow, drink up your pride and swallow
Wear your heart on your sleeve and, is that purple heart still beating?
Lead, don't follow, drink up your pride and swallow
Wear your heart on your sleeve and, is that purple heart still beating?
Military airline, where you taking me? i've got no water in this stale desert heat
And mama mama mama i promise to write home, they took my suitcase and i've got no more clothes
We're on a mission and we won't stand down
The word on the street it's us against the crown
Playing against the delivery of autonomy
Don't you know my heart is burning deep inside of me
Someone remind me, just what i've got to. his futile mission and i can't follow through
Diamond on the phone, there's ringing in the air, shot with precision, laced with fear
You've got to lead, don't follow, drink up your pride and swallow
Wear your heart on your sleeve and, is that purple heart still beating?
Lead, don't follow, drink up your pride and swallow
Wear your heart on your sleeve and, is that purple heart still beating?
And mama mama mama, i promise to write home,
They took my suitcase and i've got no more clothes
And mama mama mama, why am i so alone
They've got their reasons and i've yet to be shown
You've got to lead, don't follow, drink up your pride and swallow
Wear your heart on your sleeve and, is that purple heart still beating?
Lead, don't follow, drink up your pride and swallow
Wear your heart on your sleeve and, is that purple heart still beating?
Abort mission-abort mission. general's orders are to remain & send the dawgs to chopper eleven. there are civilians down there. the whole mission's incomplete.
Throw em' in the brink til she's decided. back up on the infrared-infrared four clicks to the north- down by the sandy knoll-general's orders are to remain-abort denied, hold em' in the brink until she's denied. debrief that soldier. incoming! incoming! abort mission,
Abort mission!. chopper down, chopper down-send in the rescue. downed dedicated cable communications out-break down-abort mission-abort mission-abort mission
You've got to lead, don't follow, drink up your pride and swallow
Wear your heart on your sleeve and, is that purple heart still beating?
Lead, don't follow, drink up your pride and swallow
Wear your heart on your sleeve and, is that purple heart still beating?
We can feel no pride, we can feel no pride, we can feel no pride, we can feel no pride
