History Has Its Eyes on You Songtext
Whoa
Whoa, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
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
History, history, history, ah-ah
History has its eyes on me
History, history, history
Ah-ah
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, history
History has its eyes on you
History, history, history, oh-ah
History has its eyes on you
History
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
History has its eyes on you
History, history, history, ah-ah
History has its eyes on you (ooh)
History (ah-ah)
History has its eyes on you (oh, ooh)
History, history
Ooh, yeah
Whoa, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
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
History, history, history, ah-ah
History has its eyes on me
History, history, history
Ah-ah
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, history
History has its eyes on you
History, history, history, oh-ah
History has its eyes on you
History
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
History has its eyes on you
History, history, history, ah-ah
History has its eyes on you (ooh)
History (ah-ah)
History has its eyes on you (oh, ooh)
History, history
Ooh, yeah
