Men of Honor

Troops on the ground like its meant to be
Left right march of death you can catch the beat
No stress the US come to set you free
Napalm bullets and dogs come to fetch with teeth
Communism the enemy, case closed
The red menace evaded Kennedy layin' low
Civilian skies spangled with the fruits of Lyndon and Nixon
Like these bombs'll scorch the thoughts from the children
No, Fright
Threatening revolution against the system
Supporting all supremacy that's... white
Death squads sendin' men to god
Skeletons in awe at the sight it ain't... right
Marched in their homes rapin'
And guns blazin' then burn shit like capsaicin
Sprayin' agent orange like a brand new fragrance
Refugee names get to erasin'
And it goes

Men of honor
Never had planned to be
How many give one 'bout all of these casualties
Men of honor
Never had planned to be
Riskin' life and limb can be damaging
Men of honor
Never had planned to be
Lines between hero and villain are fantasy
Men of honor
Never had planned to be
More strife than you were ever imagining

They used you and us too
Guess the rumors were true
The upper crust preserve power
While you battered and bruised
Left in tatters blood splatter the news
Every hour black power removed
Tryna convince you that you part of the crew
Like they ain't send you to die or kill in the name of a ruse
'Cause when you home
These racist mothafucka's are aimin' at your community
Unity on paper in reality refused
Raided Asia to keep the people believin'
There's no greater way raise your station than
Slaving away, no guarantee that you'll receive anything
Those that excel don't even play the game
A lost conflict
where both sides wanna see us off, get it on with
Both cry only most high stand to profit
And I ain't talkin' god shit
No conscience when killin' civilians and these

Men of honor
Never had planned to be
How many give one 'bout all of these casualties
Men of honor
Never had planned to be
Riskin' life and limb can be damaging
Men of honor
Never had planned to be
Lines between hero and villain are fantasy
Men of honor
Never had planned to be
More strife than you were ever imagining
