Though arduous, the journey
Now has come unto its end
My team, my guys, my family ties
Until we meet again
I will bear the weight of world'sĀ Ā 
In every step I take
In every rebel yell I roar
In every day I wake
But as you have stood beside me
So you now provide me strength
To move these mountains
Yet to cross
And span these seas at length
For we have seen them rise and fall
And disappear behind us
Serving something more than self
These obstacles remind us
None too tall and vast and grim
Withstood the rolling tide
Through highs and lows
We found the beach
No storm could have denied
Now again I charge headlong
Into the great unknown
The blue and grey still looming
Though I'm never quite alone
For I have led you on my own
A drifting captain torn apart
Before I found a team that could
Command my wild heart
