I listen to a lot of Filk. Especially by Mercedes Lackey and Leslie Fish.

Here's songs that inspire the writing.

The Price of Command
Written by Mercedes Lackey
Performed by Larry Warner


This is the price of commanding?
You always stand alone,
Let no one near
To see the fear
Behind the mask you've grown
This is the price of commanding

This is the price of commanding?
That you watch your dearest die,
Sending women and men
To fight again,
And you never tell them why
This is the price of commanding

This is the price of commanding?
That mistakes are signed in red?
And that you won?t pay
But others may,
And your best may wind up dead
This is the price of commanding

This is the price of commanding?
All the death that haunt your sleep
And you hope they forgive
And so you live
With your memories buried deep.
This is the price of commanding.

This is the price of commanding?
That if you won?t, others will.
So take you post,
And Salute each ghost?
You?ve a debt to them to fill
This is the price of commanding.
This is the price of commanding.
This is the Price -- of commanding.

No One Gets Left Behind
by Five Finger Death Punch

NO ONE GET'S LEFT BEHIND ANOTHER FALLEN SOUL
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND ANOTHER BROKEN HOME
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND WE STAND AND FIGHT TOGETHER
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND OR WE ALL DIE ALONE

Poloiticians banking in their greed
No idea on how to be all they can be

Have you no honor Have you no soul
What is it they're dying for Do you really even know
Have you no backbone Have you no spine
Whatever happened to NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND

NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND I KNOW YOU MADE IT UP
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND IT'S MORE FOR MONEY
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND DRINK FROM THE GOLDEN CUP
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND YOUR TURN IS COMING

Play your war games with other people's lives
It should be you on the front line

Have you no honor Have you no soul
What is it they're dying for Do you really even know
Have you no backbone Have you no spine
Whatever happened to NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND

Oorah!
Hut! Hut!
Oorah!

Have you no honor Have you no soul
What is it they're dying for Do you really even know
Have you no backbone Have you no spine
Whatever happened to NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND

NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND
NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND
