history has its eyes on you

whoa. whoa. oooh

oo-oooh

i was younger than you are now

when i was given my first command

i led my men into a massacre

witnessed their deaths firsthand

oh

i made every mistake

i felt the shame rise in me

and even now i lie awake

knowing history

history

history has its eyes on me

aaah

history has its eyes on me

ahhh

let me tell you what i wish i'd known

when i was young and dreamed of glory

don't nobody have 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
