We Are One

[Verse 1]
Uh, they call me Commander Shephard
I mess up geth whenever they get together
Uh, no you never can escape a Spectre
And you can't get better than my kill/death record
'Cause I died once, won't happen twice
Thanks Cerberus, now get a life
This war ain't just about humans
I'm tryna keep the galaxy from going to ruins
Doesn't matter what planet you're from
'Cause it will not last for long
We must attack when they come back from black space
Or the Reapers will have won
I have a passion that burns on
Earth is a world I can't turn on
Matter of fact
I will protect all with the mass effect that's in my palm (What?)

[Chorus]
You know I'll always be by your side (I'm never leavin' you)
And when the chips are down, we'll survive
(We're gonna make it through)
Looks like the Reapers finally found (I think they met their match)
The ones who'll never go down (We're never goin' down)
It's time to set our backgrounds aside (So just forget about)
And the galaxy shall unite (We fight together now)
Then we'll burn as bright as the sun (We're burnin' bright)
To show 'em we are one

[Verse 2]
Uh, Tali and Garrus
Robots don't mess with us
Dropkickin' drones, headshottin' husks
Even Reapers think that we're dangerous
So you really think that you can take us down?
Well you're gonna die quick if you hang around
Because I eat Collectors every day for lunch
With some Krogan soup, no offense Grunt (Huh?)
And when the sun sets in the west
I swear it'll rise again
Children of Earth, you can depend
On every man and turian
We're gonna take on this deadly infection
With a stock supply of every heavy weapon
From the Firestorm to the Arc Projector
I'm the intergalactic space protector
For every friend I've lost
I'll make ten Reapers pay
And double that for every enemy that's in my way
It's on my shoulders now
It's time to make stand
Now planet Earth you need a savior
Let me be your man

[Chorus]
You know I'll always be by your side (I'm never leavin' you)
And when the chips are down, we'll survive
(We're gonna make it through)
Looks like the Reapers finally found (I think they met their match)
The ones who'll never go down (We're never goin' down)
It's time to set our backgrounds aside (So just forget about)
And the galaxy shall unite (We fight together now)
Then we'll burn as bright as the sun (We're burnin' bright)
To show 'em we are one

[Verse 3]
I've lost a lotta men, and I've seen their broken hearts
Now we're all lookin' for revenge, because this is where it starts
Every 50,000 years, you annihilate every form of life
We will not be the ones that take it easy
'Cause we won't go silent without a fight
Now take a good look at the planet that you're landin' on
'Cause we're the ones that will be standin' by the time you're gone
Every choice that I've made is gonna effect me somehow
Now Ashley Williams is back? Damn, this is awkward as hell
But I got this far and I haven't had a break
And the human-reaper was a piece of cake
Even Saren Arterius got the axe
When I fried his brain and kicked Sovereign's ass
So Council listen up, I got a favor to ask
Send out your strongest representatives, I'll take nothin' less
Because I've dealt with these goddamn machines
So freakin' long it's a damn routine
It's an all-out war for the galaxy
No time to run, nevermind to sleep
I will not back down or accept defeat
Until they run out of batteries
So don't panic when you see the Reaper fleet
Because in outer space, no one hears you scream
I always knew that I was born to do something great
Except this ain't Bioshock, cuz I'm a man, not a slave
You ugly Reapers ain't controllin' my mind
You might've pulled that stunt before but you will not this time

[Chorus]
You know I'll always be by your side (I'm never leavin' you)
And when the chips are down, we'll survive
(We're gonna make it through)
Looks like the Reapers finally found (I think they met their match)
The ones who'll never go down (We're never goin' down)
It's time to set our backgrounds aside (So just forget about)
And the galaxy shall unite (We fight together now)
Then we'll burn as bright as the sun (We're burnin' bright)
To show 'em we are one
