"Stolen Valor" lyrics

Remember that time you've been deployed
When I stayed behind with you wife
You never know what they take from you
Until you see it on someone else

But it don't mean nothing
If she's not satisfied

I took the metal from your jacket
And I placed 'em each on my self
I ran down town to beg for change
But I came back with something else

I'm not looking for forgiveness
Unless she's not satisfied

All my scars are self-inflected
I gave 'em each to my self
Now I'm covered in decoration
That belong to someone else

But it don't mean nothing
If she's not satisfied

Now here's something, I got nothing
That I got for nothing at all
Now here's nothing, I got something
And it's dripping from my mouth
Dripping from my mouth like honey
Stolen from another bee
Where they get that honey from anyhow
It's all the same to me

Stolen valor
That's how I won the war
Stolen valor
That's how I won the war
Stolen valor
That's how I won the war
