That’s A Soldier

歌詞

Just a kid on his own just tryna get by cause his parents not home, cause they out getting high So he goes to the store tryna steal something fly But he gets bored, now he's on the juvenile ride And he's placed in a home, and he talks on the phone In a whole 'nother world cause he thinks that he's grown So he comes off the waste and shanks up a face but little does he know that's a whole 'nother case That's a soldier, been in every kind of jail Even taught himself to read, nigga sharp as a nail He don't smile that much, he don't like to be touched I mean, a nigga hard, see him out in the yard doing fifty a clip, something crazy on the waste They heater real reason they glued all the plates Nigga got no fear, every nigga on the tier From the warden to the guard show him love I swear He done put in his work, he been working the floor In the library every day learning the law So he goes to the board and they let him come home But gave him parole even though that he's grown [Chorus] Stay with the hammer, the twenty-two long (that's a soldier) Going to war even though that he's wrong (that's a soldier) Don't give a fuck what side you on (that's a soldier) You ain't his fam 'less you there when he's born (that's a soldier) And he don't care what time it is (that's a soldier) He getting up quick to handle his biz (that's a soldier) Millionaire nigga that's moving that raw (that's a soldier) And you ain't even know he lived next door (that's a soldier) Now the streets ain't the same, it's a whole 'nother game It's a lotta new names and a lotta new chains Lil' niggas on the block with pela-pelas Diamonds in their mouth, sitting on chrome, talking on cellies Big funny-shaped Benzos, big Lorenzos Homie getting tired of just rocking his Timbos Bitches running around with fat asses Only giving pussy to these niggas with nice-ass glasses Damn should change, how this pussy nigga get him a Range? These lil' niggas now working with change He like 'Fuck that, something gotta give where I live' These niggas gon' break bread or niggas is dead That's a soldier [Chorus] Aiyyo, now he already violated cause his urine is dirty And he already got a hammer, he just watching a birdy These lil' niggas don't know the homie seven-thirty And they don't really don't care, they shoot just as fast Niggas coming round the block, they better not be ass Duke a soldier, he tried to tell homie who he was What he does, laughing, lighting a blunt These lil' niggas like 'Yeah? Now what you want?' Showed his gun handle, point the O.G. to candles Tell 'em that could be him, now beat your Timbs Homie clapped at 'em, point the MAC at 'em It's getting crazy now, but fuck it, it's a soldier in town [Chorus]
