lyrics

*Fearful breathing; oxygen monitor beeps in helmet*

Hyper-v rounds pierce the void in the dark,
Tracer coatings show crews where they land their mark.
Circuits do the ready, steady, aim, and fire.
Reaches so big, we can't rely on fly-by-wire.
Not like we can see the target; 30 klicks out. (Too far)
Not like we can hide from it when radiators shout. (Too hot)
Can't be stealthy with a background of perfect four;
Constant perfect intel; you couldn't know more.

Tremble from invasion burn
Drop the stages into the sky
One way ticket to the end
Tracers burn lines in the dark
From here on out it's do or die
Hermann Oberth screams "go!"
Engines burn a powerful glow
Dance in bullet showers bright
See the nukes burst in the night
No delta-V for flight; just fight

Ooo-ooo...

No delta-V for flight; just fight!!

This isn't a navy.
This isn't an air force.
This is a low-orbit fleet,
with new tricks, of course.
Not like we need fighters; humans won't survive.
Not like we need an ambush; where's the surprise?
Forget what you know; movies don't apply.
Leave theatrics at the door, unless you want to die.

Fight for the mission, and your return.
No delta-V for another burn.
The worst sound that you can hear
is the vacuum ripping open your ear.
