Lyrics
Wake up
Meet the sunrise
Another day has dawned
Gear up
Grab your rifle
Today could bring the fight you crave
Oh
Follow me
I am what my country expects me to be
War is my purpose
Peace is my bane
I am what is needed
A killing machine
Oh
I am the Infantry
Follow me
Chasing
Bloodshed
Infantry at play
Hubris
Self-confidence
To us it's all the same
Honor
Glory
Words we mock and shame
Out here
It's clear
War is just a game
Frayed minds
Broken bodies
We do this willingly
Bright-eyed
Steeped in chaos
We laugh at war's absurdity
Oh
Follow me
I am what my country expects me to be
War is my purpose
I am the Infantry
I am the Infantry
Follow me
Chasing
Bloodshed
Infantry at play
Hubris
Self-confidence
To us it's all the same
Honor
Glory
Words we mock and shame
Out here
It's clear
War is just a game
We're the boots on the ground
Made our peace now we're battle-bound
Few and foolish, insane
But we know just how to play this game
Grab your gear and follow me
I am the Infantry
Follow me
I am the Infantry
Follow me
Chasing
Bloodshed
Infantry at play
Hubris
Self-confidence
To us it's all the same
Honor
Glory
Words we mock and shame
Out here
It's clear
War is just a game
We're the boots on the ground
Made our peace now we're battle-bound
Few and foolish, insane
But we know just how to play this game
Grab your gear and follow me
I am the Infantry
Follow me
I am the Infantry
Follow me
