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
I felt the shame rise in me
And even now I lie awake
Knowing history has its eyes on me
History has its eyes on me.
Whoa…
Whoa…
Whoa…
Yeah
Whoa…
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…
Whoa…
History has its eyes on you
