Lyrics:

I’m a machine, but have a soul
Duty and honor, my truest goal
With every challenge, I grow stronger still
In the heart of battle, I’m clad in green
Master Chief, a force to be seen
A Spartan warrior, fearless and so bold

With every challenge I
grow stronger still
not looking back, preserving all free will
I’ll make sure the Covenant’s reign’s undone

Resistance
Oh
We will push back
Resistance
Oh
Against All Odds

I’m a warrior a symbol of might
Fighting for hope in the darkest night
Cortana by my side, we’ll prevail
Saving us all from the enemy
Fighting until the world is free
The Flood may rise but it’s not stopping me

With every challenge I
grow stronger still
not looking back, preserving all free will
I’ll make sure the Covenant’s reign’s undone

Resistance
Oh
We will push back
Resistance
Oh
Against All Odds

Resistance
Oh
We will push back
Resistance
Oh
Against All Odds
