The Space Force introduced their official song today at the 2022 Air & Space Forces Association Air, Space and Cyber Conference in National Harbor, Maryland. The song titled “Sempra Supra” is named after the USSF motto adopted when the force was enacted back in 2019.
The song was commissioned at the onset of the Space Force. It was cowritten and produced by Gen John “Jay” Raymond and former Air Force band member James Teachenor.
The song makes reference to the Guardians, which like airmen in the Air Force, is what Space Force members refer to themselves as. It also alludes to the fact that they are “guardians beyond the blue”, a likely nod to the Air Force from which the service is still closely tied.
The full lyrics are below:
We’re the mighty watchful eye,
Guardians beyond the blue,
The invisible front line,
Warfighters brave and true.
Boldly reaching into space,
There’s no limit to our sky.
Standing guard both night and day,
We’re the Space Force from on high.
