The Deployment Lyrics
V1
its only 3 months out
And I still cant believe im leavin
Out here on the railhead sweatin
Loadin these trains on the weekend
And now for the first time ever
Its startin to sink in
How far were fittin to fly away
And my family, might not ever see em again
Cause this year could turn to forever
Where were headed
Plus what to expect I have no idea
So for anything im ready
Tryin not to see the stress building
In the eyes of my family
But everyday is more weight forem
And its getting so heavy
They collapsing under the pressure
Of the situation we all facin
Me im trying to remain calm forem
Though inside my hearts racin
Got the worst on my mind
Though these thoughts I try to replacem
And I dont even know if im comin home
But I tellem im gon make it.
4 hours before my flight now
tears forming on our faces
and for these last few hours
reality can no longer escape us
told ourselves this wont happenin
now its happening and we cant change it
so in these last minutes we say bye
to say hi a year later.
V2
Look I was madder then a motherf*cker
Sadder then a motherf*cker
3 days before my exit
I guess im trapped up in this f*cker
To a
Future unknown and I say damn I really hate it
Cause I know if I was to die today theyd
Go find myself a replacement
Gave me more of a reason
To ask god and myself why
But I was saved by my manhood
Stayed in tact didnt let me cry
Made me more of a man
Knowin the normal couldnt hack it
Feelin like im Jordan or something
Risin above and beyond the f*ckin average
Equipped with anger for any stranger
That tags along thru my journey
No goodbyes to my family
Addin pages to lifes story
Slowly and surely
Closing up all unfinished business
Dead all my affairs to the rear
Cause my social life now is finished
And with god as my witness
Im not the only one thats goin thru it
And Ill never be alone
Cause my comrades is goin thru it
Addin gas to the flame
Knowin life it isnt fair
But really pissed me off the most
Is half my country didnt even care
V3
Kiss my
Family goodbye its time to load these planes
4 duffel bags for the next year
all I got to my name
only 4 changes a clothes
and every outfit looks the same
got this rifle slung on my shoulder
with 7 loaded magazines
on my way over to the last place
I ever thought Id see
Where they tell me its millions of people
That need me to set em free
So in exchange for they freedom
I put my own life on freeze
And leave everything I love
To board this plane for overseas
Knowin some of us wont make it back
But thats the gamble we take, And we handle it
Cause we are soldiers
And we play the cards we are handed
However they fall, Let fate call it
Cause for war there is no planning
And some of the things thats gon happen here
Yall will never understand them
But just remember
This is not you here standin
And while were gon pray for each one of us
Like we were part of your familiy
And whatever fate we are handed
Know we took it like champions
And for those of us who will fall
Never let our memory be abandoned.
its only 3 months out
