[Intro]
Back in '01, lost in the dust and the sun
A reckless Marine, on the run, just for fun
Command said move, we gotta create a diversion
A wild, daring plan, fueled by desperation
[Verse 1]
Strip down to his boots, no armor, no shame
Running through the desert, playing Ray Stevens' game
The tanks turned around, chasing after his shadow
Through dunes and the heat, he’s a hero in the making though
[Pre-Chorus]
No fear in his eyes, just the will to survive
Knowing he might not make it, but he’s alive
A gamble, a reckless call, standing tall
He’s risking it all just to save them all
[Chorus]
Oh, daring the desert, running wild and free
Fighting for the moment, for a greater decree
They call him foolish, they call him brave
A legend in the sands, a hero who gave
His all in the heat, with a medal of gold
The story of a Marine, daring and bold
[Verse 2]
From the dunes to the hill, the enemy’s stunned
A stunt that turned the tide, victory won
They might not come home, but they’ll remember his name
In the annals of valor, etched in flame
[Pre-Chorus]
No fear in his eyes, just the will to survive
Knowing he might not make it, but he’s alive
A gamble, a reckless call, standing tall
He’s risking it all just to save them all
[Chorus]
Oh, daring the desert, running wild and free
Fighting for the moment, for a greater decree
They call him foolish, they call him brave
A legend in the sands, a hero who gave
His all in the heat, with a medal of gold
The story of a Marine, daring and bold
[Bridge]
Sometimes bravery is a reckless dance
A fleeting moment, a fighting chance
In the heart of chaos, he stood alone
A story of courage carved in stone
[Outro]
So here’s to the Marine, daring and true
A hero of the desert, through and through
Even if they say that he’s insane
He changed the game, he broke the chain
[Medal of Longing]
His foolishness earned him more than gold
A story forever retold, brave and bold
