What motivates me?
First of all, with the man in the cave
And this idea and this thought of the enemy
That was a thought that used to drive me
And kinda haunt me and make me get up early and work hard to push myself
Because i knew that somewhere out there, there was an enemy
A real enemy, a real man, a person, a human that was waiting
That was preparing for me
And therefore, i needed to preparе for him
I needed to be ready i needеd to be the things i always talk about
I needed to be stronger, faster, and smarter and better
So that when we did meet on the battlefield
I would be ready for that rendezvous, for that meeting, that fate, that battle
And that thought, that thought of the enemy, it absolutely fueled me
The enemy
That was a thought that used to drive me
And kinda haunt me
The enemy
That was a thought that used to drive me
And kinda haunt me
And when i was a leader in the seal teams, in charge of men
It was even more profound because i was thinking about that rendezvous
For everybody that i led, everyone i was in charge of, everyone that i trained
And i felt that burden
The burden of responsibility to prepare those men
Protect those, those men, those – those frog men
Those warriors, my brothers
And it, it was my burden to train those guys and prepare them
And that burden, it may have made me a little bit crazy, a little bit paranoid
A little over-the-top
But i didn’t really know any
Any other way
The enemy
That was a thought that used to drive me
And kinda haunt me
The enemy
That was a thought that used to drive me
And kinda haunt me
So now, i am no longer a combat leader
I no longer prepare men for war
So the drive and the motivation is from a different place
It’s from a solemn place
The drive now and the motivation now is
Not really from the enemy anymore
Now it’s from my friends, my brothers
It’s from those seals that i knew and that i cared about
More than anything
And that they sacrificed everything for us, for me
The enemy
That was a thought that used to drive me
And kinda haunt me
The enemy
That was a thought that used to drive me
And kinda haunt me
Those guys, they gave their lives for us
And now, i cannot help but think and remember
That every breath that we take
It’s a sacred gift from those men
Every day we have, every sunrise
Every thought, and every smile and every laugh, it’s a gift
And i will treasure that gift, that gift of life
And i will not let it go to waste, not one second of it
I’ll cherish every moment of it
And i will live it
I will live it in their memory, in their honor
