Stolen Valor

Remember that time you've been deployed

When I stayed behind with your wife

You never know what they take from you

Until you see it on someone else

But it don't mean nothing

If she's not satisfied

I took the metal from your jacket

And I placed them each on myself

I ran down town to beg for change

But came back with something else

I'm not looking for forgiveness

Unless she's not satisfied

All my scars are self-inflected

I gave them each to myself

Now I'm covered in decoration

That belong to someone else

But it don't mean nothing

If she's not satisfied

Now here's something, I got nothing

That I got for nothing at all

Now here's nothing, I got something

And it's dripping from my mouth

Dripping from my mouth like honey

Stolen from another bee

Where they get that honey from anyhow

It's all the same to me

Stolen valor

That's how I won the war

Stolen valor

That's how I won the war

Stolen valor

That's how I won the war
