[Verse 1]
Boots in the dust
Armor on my skin
Hammer of orders
Biting deep within
Every wall shakes
Every door can bleed
I was built for ruin
I was forged in need
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that siren howl
Count the fallen names
We don’t get to kneel
We just feed the flames
[Chorus]
I’m a COG soldier
Made of iron and grit
I hold this line
I don’t quit
I’m a COG soldier
Stand or die in the smoke
(War! War!) we rise again
With the weight we broke
[Verse 2]
Cover’s just a prayer
Carved in broken stone
Brother on my right
Ghosts on my phone
I’ve seen the red sky
Split by gunfire scars
Still I push through hell
With a chest full of scars
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that siren howl
Count the fallen names
We don’t get to kneel
We just feed the flames
[Chorus]
I’m a COG soldier
Made of iron and grit
I hold this line
I don’t quit
I’m a COG soldier
Stand or die in the smoke
(War! War!) we rise again
With the weight we broke
[Bridge]
If I fall tonight
Bury me in steel
Tell my brother’s sons
This is how we heal
Marching through the ash
Bloodied but awake
One last oath of thunder
For the world we make
[Final Chorus]
I’m a COG soldier
Made of iron and grit
I hold this line
I don’t quit
I’m a COG soldier
Stand or die in the smoke
(War! War!) we rise again
With the weight we broke
