[Verse 1]
I rolled through Georgia on a red clay road,
The air was heavy, the pine trees bowed low.
Fort Gordon stood like a ghost from the past,
Its walls held stories, shadows that last.
[Prechorus]
Boots on the ground, hearts in the grind,
I felt the weight, out of my mind.
[Chorus]
Out of my mind in Georgia's heat,
Where the cadence of soldiers echoes deep.
I walked the line, I took the test,
Out of my mind, but I gave my best.
[Verse 2]
Drills at dawn, the whistle’s sharp wail,
The thunder of footsteps on the gravel trail.
The sun bore down like a fiery crown,
Sweat and dust painted this battleground.
[Prechorus]
Voices calling, “left, right, keep time,”
I marched along, out of my mind.
[Chorus]
Out of my mind in Georgia's heat,
Where the cadence of soldiers echoes deep.
I walked the line, I took the test,
Out of my mind, but I gave my best.
