(Intro — Spoken over jet engines)“Eagle One, cleared hot.This is history in motion.”

(Verse 1)
From Pearl Harbor’s burning sky,To Doolittle’s daring flight,B-17s crossed the seas,Carving freedom through the night.
In Korea’s frozen air,F-86s took the dare.Vietnam’s long, relentless fight,Phantoms screaming through the night.

(Pre-Chorus)
We flew when no one else could fly,We fought when freedom’s fate was high.With every mission, every roar,We are the thunder of the Corps.

(Chorus)
Into the storm, into the fight,With wings of steel and hearts of light.From bombs on target, skies ablaze,To saving lives in war’s cruel haze.Across the decades, through the strife,We are the shield, we are the knife.Into the storm, into the sky,The Air Force soars, we rise, we fly.

(Verse 2)
Desert Storm, the night lit bright,Smart bombs falling, surgical might.Balkans, Iraq, Afghanistan’s call,Airmen standing through it all.
Gunships, silent death,warthogs roaring breath.C-17s bring the fight,Para jumpers in the night.

(Bridge)
“Special ops inbound.TACPs, lasers hot.Clear the runway,The Air Force never stops.”

(Final Chorus)
Into the storm, into the fight,With wings of steel and hearts of light.From bombs on target, skies ablaze,To saving lives in war’s cruel haze.Across the decades, through the strife,We are the shield, we are the knife.Into the storm, into the sky,The Air Force soars, we rise, we fly.
