  • Official Lyrics:
    The hot wind blowing
    Jagged lines across the sand
    The crumbling buildings
    In our minds are all that stand
    Just like the buffalo
    Blindly following the herd
    We try to justify
    All the things that have occurred
    I don't know what I've been told
    But the wishes of the people can't be controlled
    I don't know what I've been told
    But the wishes of the people can't be controlled
    Heat of the desert
    Dust settles on my face
    Without a compass
    The soldier knows no disgrace
    Out of the ashes
    The eagle rises still
    Freedom is calling
    To all men who bend their will
    Here I am
    Dirty and faceless
    Waiting to heed your instruction
    On my own
    Invisible warrior
    I am a wind of destruction
    All men who bend their will
    We fight for justice
    In a forgotten place
    Fulfill our duty
    Then vanish without a trace
    Don't need a medal
    For all the men we kill
    Freedom is calling
    To all men who bend their will
    Wind of destruction

    It's an interesting stance the game takes - that between being a monster who fully understands the harm they're causing and revelling in it, and being a soldier who has been suckered into doing so through propaganda and orders, it's the monster that's more respectable because they genuinely understand and believe in what they're fighting for.

      Worse yet how the brutality of war and propaganda cause people to do unspeakable horrors and not bat an eye at it. They even revel in it thinking of it as honorable. This song embodies the reality of soldiers in war. If a triple a game were to replicate something like this, it'd be criticized for being too accurate. Sad but that's the world we live in

      I agree. Problem is that a lot of devs for military shooters know their audience are pro military (and actually quite a few vets and currently serving) and would be offended.
      Also, if you show the military in a good light in your project than most if not all military branches (looking at you especially navy) will actually give you help developing your movie/game/etc by allowing you access to different physical and virtual military assets to aid you. They do this because it not only makes them look better but is proven to boost enlistment numbers.
      Want to throw out there by the way that I respect and support those who fight so I don't have to, it's the brass and the bureaucratic profiteers that I'm against.

    I just noticed this, probably a coincidence but the start of the game and the underlying beat is eerily similar to "The Unenlightened Masses/Colelctive Conciousness". Khasim's blind dedication and history of being a faceless and emotionless soldier who doesnt know his place among the others of desperado makes this make a whole lot of sense. He is a member of the unenlightened masses, a blind follower who cannot comprehend his status as a pawn in the grander game of desperado.

Facing Sam, and in the end, using Sam's blade against Armstrong made him truly recognize his path (Violence breeds violence). "It has to be this way" references the fight itself. The two never needed to fight, as they had the same purpose in this conflict, kill Armstrong. The final line in the song, "Yet I feel new life will be born beneath the bloodstained sand".

    There's a particular beauty in that this song is not a celebration of the character associated with it, but instead a dirge. This is not a triumphant battle theme like Jetstream Sam or Monsoon, but instead a complete and utter deconstruction of Khamsin as a pathetic, servile individual. This is not the battle anthem of a warrior, this is the song of a man who has committed unspeakable evil for reasons he can't even name, completely suckered in by years of propaganda, and he's about to die for it. This is him explaining his life to his killer, not boasting of his prowess.
    He was a nameless, faceless goon enacting the whims of empire, he was told he was fighting for peace or justice when all he did was butcher innocents so the rich could get richer. Khamsin was someone sucked into the military-industrial complex and turned into a monster, whereas someone like Sundowner or Monsoon ALWAYS had that evil inside of them and simply had a chance to indulge in it.

      Not only that. For example, how much do we know what happened to e.g. WW1 or WW2 soldiers right after these wars ended¹, or what happens to corpses of all the soldiers that died in the battlefield²? Exactly. We know nothing about them, since soldier is only known as long as the battle is on.
      ¹WW1 veterans have been simply ignored by governments of their countries, so small group of extremely lucky ones, who managed to survive this massacre without any serious wounds, were able to return to their murderous fabrics and kill themselves there yet again, with family telling them to ,,man up". The entire rest would just be thrown to the streets, abandoned by society and their family, living a life of a beggar. Oh, wait - that's the best outcome. In most countries, e.g. in Germany, they felt betrayed and joined extremist far-right organisations, where they started fighting new wars on their own, this time with Communists. As for WW2 veterans, many of them suffered severe PTSD, sometimes even addiction, and became just brutal people, which took its toll on their children. This new generation will create, as it will be known, ,,Golden age of serial killers" in USA.
      ²It depends on the war. Usually, after it ended, a special group of people came there to take the bodies and give it a proper burial. During WW1, however, it wasn't possible, so majority of them still remains in Poland and France, still waiting for proper burial.

    I'd like to think this song represents Khamsin's thinking. He probably thinks he's one of the main winds of destruction, but in reality he's nothing more than a pawn. All the main enemies from the main game came around to Armstrong's thinking and compared it to their own ideals, while Khamsin was basically bought into Armstrong's speech of freedom and one's own destiny. This is why Mistral wanted to kill him cause She basically saw him as another soldier without his own thoughts and was basically bored, knowing full well that no one would miss him within the main winds of destruction.

    My favorite song from the entire game, lyrics straight out of a Bad Religion song, explaining both what Khamsin sees himself as, someone who wants to bring freedom to the "less favored", but showing in actuality he's nothing more than a soldier in a land he had no point being in, just cause he was told to by a charismatic leader, he's just a wind of destruction.
    edit: and apparently John Bush from Armored Saints and Anthrax is the vocalist, so even better.
