History Has Its Eyes on You

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, knowing history has its eyes on me (Whoa, whoa)

History has its eyes on me (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, history has its eyes on you (Whoa, whoa)

History has its eyes on you
