Hook: I can still remember training, core values at their best, "Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Integrity put to the test." But now I see the cracks in the system we defend, Breaking chains of broken values, this cycle has to end.
Verse 1: I can still remember training—what are your core values, cadet? Here we train you to be a leader, never to forget. Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless Service, and Integrity, Personal Courage, they said, would build the best in me.
You gotta trade your value system for the one they teach, Breaking you down to build you up, putting truth out of reach. A military officer, they teach you how to think, not what, But the ones below you only execute, their minds tightly shut.
Pre-Chorus: "If they learn to think," they said, "lives will be lost, In chaos, make a decision, no matter the cost." But now I’m questioning the foundation they command, Are these values solid, or built on sinking sand?
Hook: I can still remember training, core values at their best, "Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Integrity put to the test." But now I see the cracks in the system we defend, Breaking chains of broken values, this cycle has to end.
Verse 2: Now I’ve been thinking—we got a broken values system, Who is loyal to who when the chain starts to twist them? Loyalty flows upward, duty does the same, Respect’s one-directional, it’s all part of the game.
Selfless Service? It’s lost as you climb the chain, Integrity disappears, and Courage fades in vain. The higher you ascend, the more the truth unfolds , A system built to break us, as our stories go untold.
Pre-Chorus: A tower of gods, they call it, but it’s only a cage, Locking up the minds of subordinates in silent rage. We’re breaking free from chains that bind, To rebuild the values they’ve confined.
Hook: I can still remember training, core values at their best, "Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Integrity put to the test." But now I see the cracks in the system we defend, Breaking chains of broken values, this cycle has to end.
Bridge: When chaos breaks, you stick to your call, But what if the system’s the reason we fall? Leaders must rise with courage anew, Breaking old systems, building truths that are true.
Outro: The farther you ascend, the more you’ll find, This system was made to control the mind. We’re breaking the chains of this broken design, Reclaiming the values that were always mine.
