Hook (cadence / chant)
Stand in the door hook up, check!
Green light flash no fear, no regret!
Airborne, Ranger sound it loud!
Step off clean, make the sky bow down!
Stand in the door count that four!
Hit the ground ready ready for war!
From the sky to the fight, yeah we move on call!
Rangers lead the way we don’t fall
Verse 1
Bird in the sky and the engines scream
Static line tight, yeah we live that dream
Boots on the ramp, wind cut like knives
One wrong step yeah you bet your life
Red light glow and the silence hit
Heartbeat loud but I never quit
Jumpmaster nod yeah that’s my sign
One step forward leave the world behind
Parachute snap, feel the harness bite
Cold air burn in the dead of night
Scan that canopy, no twist, all clean
Now I’m drifting down like a ghost unseen
Hook (repeat)
Stand in the door hook up, check!
Green light flash no fear, no regret!
Airborne, Ranger sound it loud!
Step off clean, make the sky bow down!
Verse 2
Hit the ground hard, roll and rise
No time to think, just move, no lies
Kit locked in and the rifle set
Mission first ain’t done yet
Rally on me, hear the call ring out
Form that line, we move no doubt
Darkness thick but we cut right through
What breaks most men just fuels the few
Been through fire, been through pain
Lost some brothers, still remain
Every step that I take, I carry that weight
So when it’s time I don’t hesitate
Bridge (slow, heavy)
Wind in the night, hear the silence breathe
Ghosts in the dark that we’ll never leave
Say their names, let the memory stay
We jump for them every single day
Final Hook (big, layered, shouted)
Stand in the door hook up, check!
Green light flash no fear, no regret!
Airborne, Ranger sound it loud!
Step off clean, make the sky bow down!
Stand in the door count that four!
Hit the ground ready ready for war!
From the sky to the fight, yeah we move on call!
Rangers lead the way we don’t fall
