We soar above the mystical white clouds
The only thing separating us is the translucent glass
We watch as it slideshows the roads we've surpassed

The city lights shine bright as we fly into the night
Above the city, above superior odds
At last, we feel in our hearts that we've won the fight

Against ourselves, against our fears,
Against the struggles, thick and thin
Against adversity, physical and mental, we'll continue to win

Our next journey awaits us, 1000 more miles to go
We are newly bred soldiers, we stand ready to roll
Transformed sons and daughters, we make our way home

The same hometown and same people await
Yet the graduates returning through the gates
Are now American soldiers, standing prouder than ever today
