Call of Duty
Radek Wade Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The name's Daniels
A private of the bloody first
And into the battle I'm not driven by bloodthirst
I'm driven by the duty that calls and
When it's knocking on your door you'd best open up
And let the gate drop down to the ground real hard
As my comrades drop down to the machine gun fire
Crouched behind hedgehogs in the front line
Storming the Normandy with my brothers in arms
Though I am not bulletproof
I'm one of the lucky few who
Managed to break through to the
Trenches behind the enemy lines
Beyond the no man's land that's full of land mines
So don't you ever try
To stand in the way of my iron sight
'Cause when I've been taking my aim
Since I was in the fifth grade
Now I'm a seasoned veteran in every Call of Duty game

Now there is only one
Thing that makes you hold the line
And it's hiding inside of your heart and hearts of the brothers by your side
This is why we must stand our ground
And allow the hero inside
To bravely step into the light
And keep marching to the rhythm of this world war drum

Moving on the war still rages on
Even after every battle we've won
There's still much more left to go
You know we've all left our home to protect it from war
Hold strong
We're still marching on
Crawling through mud through guts and gore
Mit Luftwaffe in the sky und Panzerkampfwagen on the ground
Wie ein Scharfschütze on a tower sniping another Wehrmacht kraut down
Amidst the deadliest conflict of human history
I find my darkest self, the sinister me
But somewhere beyond that my honor and bravery
And I'm gonna take that and awaken that private inside of me
(Lieutenant tell them what we're all about
No mission too difficult
No sacrifice too great)

Now there is only one
Thing that makes you hold the line
And it's hiding inside of your heart and hearts of the brothers by your side
This is why we must stand our ground
And allow the hero inside
To bravely step into the light
And keep marching to the rhythm of this world war drum

'Cause we are more than cogs in the war machine
More than the first leading infantry
Marching over Europa's debris
And among the fallen trees bombarded by artilleries
This is how a heroic action gets done
When you put your life on the line




In order to do what is right and
In order to protect what you love
