LYRICS:

VERSE 1
Wake up, John. You're finally needed
It's been 4 years since the Covies were defeated
You finished the fight, but now you're just getting started
As you float off through galaxies uncharted

There's not much left of the Forward Unto Dawn
So watch your step, you know you can't respawn
For when Cortana wakes you from your sleep, you gotta make a promise that you know you can keep

What's that? It's the UNSC Infinity
Emerging from the clouds with its brilliant divinity
Not landing, rather crashing to the ground
Get to it quick, because the Didact's inbound

There's a whole handful of new enemies to fight
The Promethan Crawler, the Watcher, the Knight
Hop into a Mantis, Warthog, or a Ghost, run forward into battle shouting out AXIOS!

CHORUS
Save Cortana, face the Didact, blow some stuff up, and don't look back
Requim is waiting for you, grab your BR, you know what you gotta do
Save Cortana, face the Didact, blow some stuff up, and don't look back
Requim is waiting for you, grab your BR, go do what you gotta do

VERSE 2
Pimp, out, your Spartan IV
Cuz we be on Infinity playing games like War
You've never seen a player like me before
Get a sniper and go sneaking, up, on your back door
Headshot, BOOM, I'm raising my score
SR-1 to SR-SOME MORE
Specializations are all mine to explore
Got armour so sick that you can't ignore

Impact, Solace, Ravine, Complex
Ragnarok, Erosion what map will be next?
Each one better than the previous one
And I just can't wait to have some fun
Forge Mode's SICK, it's got all the new features
And I can't wait for the Campaign's new creatures
But one mode's gonna beat out all the rest
It's War Games son, and it's gonna be the best.

CHORUS
Save Cortana, face the Didact, blow some stuff up, and don't look back
Requim is waiting for you, grab your BR, you know what you gotta do
Save Cortana, face the Didact, blow some stuff up, and don't look back
Requim is waiting for you, grab your BR, go do what you gotta do

BRIDGE
Lasky, Del rio, Master chief and more
Bear witness to the revolution known as Halo 4
War Games, Spartan Ops, Theatre or Forge
Packed so full of game modes that your eyes they will engorge

Requiem awaits, it's gonna be a test
Cortana's got your back, she knows what to suggest
So puff up your chest, you gotta be the best
The best of the best of the best of the best

November 6th approaches and I want you all to hear
Precicely what I'm doing when the game is getting near
I'm buying some Doritos, Mountain Dew, and Micky Ds
Getting double XP so I'm ranking up with ease

Battle, Assault, and Designated Marksman rifles
Comin at you so deadly that you can't focus you will stifle
Every single breath you take you're gonna wish you had another
If you're bringing a controller then you know you are my brother

CHORUS
Save Cortana, face the Didact, blow some stuff up, and don't look back
Requim is waiting for you, grab your BR, you know what you gotta do
Save Cortana, face the Didact, blow some stuff up, and don't look back
Requim is waiting for you, grab your BR, go do what you gotta do

Who else remembers this song coming back here after so long?

Keep making more like this it's amazing!

[NthStingray]

OMG I remember this song when halo 4 was about to come out I listened to this song every day, ah the memories (edit from 2020, listening to this while playing halo 5 with a friend and we just had the biggest nostalgia trip of playing halo 4 for the first time, whether I loved the game or hated it those memories are some of my fondest. I love halo and always will)

[GokuKakarot]

I listen this masterpiece
8 years ago

Remembering my childhood and my Halo 4 period, and by the way : this music

[JamesPosseHunt]

The last time I listened to this, Halo 4 wasn't even out yet

[gremlingf]

It's been four years and I've just now rediscovered this song. It's still good after this long.

[Symphoniics]

This was seriously a different time. I miss this. All I had to worry about was school lol

[Steven.]

2021 and video game raps are still legendary

[teamscope]

Halo 4 hype was a completely different level of hype for Halo and games in general this is still a masterpiece 10 years later. Just like Halo 4 itself. 😮😢

[Real_Halo_MC]

I can't believe that this came out 3 years ago....

[blue-]

I remember listening to this way back in the day, I'm glad I still could find it after so many years. It'll always hold a nice place in my mind.

[bluesoap]

I have been looking for this song for 5 long years an I have finaly found it.😂 this is a great song I will never forget.

[JesusMartinez-ukxu]

What a good old memory listening to an amazing child hood song

[Lexie_Tyler]

Not sure how on earth this got recommended to me now but man the nostalgia is strong with this one

[ArtHollow]

Even after all of these years, I still remember these lyrics. Wow.

I used to listen to this day-in, day-out. Man, this song was a huge part of my hype for Halo 4. It's amazing that this holds up even today - you made a fantastic thing here, Greenskull. I might end up listening to this more often (again), now that I've rediscovered it.

[therealRxpid]

8 Years ago I heard this, still coming back to it every week while doing halo 4 runs with the boys

[gunmaster]

When I heard Sarah start singing that chorus, chills went up my spine.
Fantastic song!

[Symphoniics]

Ahhh.. It's about that time again. I'm feeling the Halo nostalgia again. Every time I listen to this, I get really happy and remember how much I enjoyed Halo 4's campaign. The vocals in the chorus bring me so much emotion. Finally revealing the Forerunners was such a relief. No longer having to imagine everything felt so great. Man, I'm all over the place with this comment. So much nostalgia rushing through me right now. Haha. Now I need a Halo 5: Guardians Rap to put on replay. :D

[TheHQGaming]

Holy cow Ready Up Live This is awesome!  Hahaha :D  I couldn't get to sleep because I was so pumped up over this song.  Save Cortana!  Face the Didact!  Damn, I am putting in Halo 4 today!

[randomfurrygirl]

I just remembered this, dear lord, i used to listen to this so much lol
