Special forces, or special operations forces are terms used to describe highy-trained military units trained to perform unconventional, often high-risk missions.
Special forces, as they would now be recognised, emerged in the early 20th century, with a significant growth in the field during the Second World War.
Special forces capabilities include the following:
Special forces have played an important role throughout the history of warfare whenever the aim has been to achieve disruption by "hit and run" and sabotage, rather than more traditional conventional army combat. Other significant roles lay in reconnaissance, providing essential intelligence from close to or among the enemy, and increasingly in combating terrorists, their infrastructure and activities.
Chinese strategist Jiang Ziya, in his Six Secret Teachings, describes recruiting talented and highly-motivated men for serving in specialized elite units with such functions as commanding heights and making rapid long-distance advances.Hamilcar Barca in Sicily (249 BC) had specialized troops trained to launch several offensives per day. In the late Roman or early Byzantine period, Roman fleets used small, fast camouflaged ships crewed by selected men for scouting and commando missions. Similarly, Muslim forces also had several naval special operations units, including one which used camouflaged ships to gather intelligence and launch raids, and another which consisted of soldiers who could pass for Crusaders who would use ruses to board enemy ships and then capture and destroy them. While more commonly known as spies and assassins, Japanese ninja were sometimes used as assault troops or fortress guards, or otherwise fought alongside more conventional soldiers. During the Napoleonic wars, rifle and sapper units were formed who held more specialised roles in reconnaissance and skirmishing and were not committed to the formal battle lines.

Looks to kill and a mouth that curses
When it hurts I want to take you down
You were born so I could kiss you
Snort cocaine and lick it off you
All the same I want to take you down
But I dream of someone else, sometimes I hate myself
But I can't change myself, so now you've got me got me got me
I'm not your slave but you treat me like an animal
You keep me tied down and tortured on a chain of love
I'm not your slave but you treat me like an animal
You keep me tied down and tortured on a chain of love
You may be pain but I don't regret you
Often still I can't respect you
All of me just wants to take you down
The devil comes, the force is with you
Consideration has never been you
All the same I want to take you down
But I dream of someone else, sometimes I hate myself
But I can't change myself, so now you've got me got me got me
I'm not your slave but you treat me like an animal
You keep me tied down and tortured on a chain of love
I'm not your slave but you treat me like an animal
You keep me tied down and tortured on a chain of love
Do what you want you've got special forces [6X]
I'm not your slave but you treat me like an animal
You keep me tied down and tortured on a chain of love
I'm not your slave but you treat me like an animal
