I lead troops into battle

I have scars to prove

A sword at my side

Yet not one vote

But one day you’ll see

The difference I’ve made

You’ll see the good I brought

While you waste away

So don’t say it is easy

Don’t say it is straightforward

Because we all know it’s not

It’s actually quite hard

So shall I show the scars, again and again

Shall I show the wounded

And the dead in graves

I am fighting

Next time I will throw you into battle

You can see what is like

To have the world on your shoulders

And still stand up straight
