Story behind the song
i wrote this inspired by a soldier i knew who died in iraq
Lyrics
Man this tha life n times ofa solja in rhymes
Marchin lines througha field of crimes
Grippin tha m16 n tha nines relyin on vests n sighns
This a story ofa sloja in tha mid east
tha story ofa solja in tha beast of tha east
Tha story ofa solja marchin ta beats
boots on his feet fealin like upside down cletes
Wit ery victory comes numerus defeats
landing otha soljas in they holy seats
Layin low ina concrete jungle as he slips n creeps
raisin his rifle sights as he looks n peeps
Enemy in tha distance they heads covered in sheets
packin numerus high powerd heats
He knows whut he gotta do
he knows he gotta make it through
this his one last chance ta prove
That he got tha guts ta move
till he gets home n relaxes in tha booth
away from life n tha horrible truth
he went from screamin mcs ta weildin rpgs
scheming fa degrees ta belivin n wishin fa peace
fealin like his heart n souls on lease his bodys ona leash
he can no longer take tha tease as he yells jesus please
in his soul n minds release through that religus slash insanity crease
to him its tha end ofa world his thoughts n beliefs swirled
as he bent over a trash can n hurled hopin fa his freedom to be unfurled
as he sits ina corner curled no curage no bravery only thoughts bein twirled
then he gathers his energy n stands wita new intensity
no longer fightin fo his city but fightin fo his country
legitimacy burnin through his veigns lika electricity
puts this war in a simplicity ignorin his brains complexity
rememberin his girl back home n her beauty stretchin to infinity
then he lets his clip empty no longer sein his adversary as an enemy
never saw behind him tha sentry only fealt pain in his back burnin lika anenamy
took 45 froma auto 45 all he saw was his life flash by like breaking news live
as all goes blank n no longer jive n a father takes his death dive leavin 4 kids n a wive
He knows whut he gotta do
he knows he gotta make it through
this his one last chance ta prove
That he got tha guts ta move
till he gets home n relaxes in tha booth
away from life n tha horrible truth
3 thousand miles away his wife crys in dismay
foa husband she lost yesterday nobody kows whut to say
her thoughts r put on pause n delay
shed been afraid of this since tha 1st of may
now its came n all she can feel is pain fallin ina steady rain
fa 3 years shed played this game now its game over witout critical acclaim
lifes no longer tha same witout his love flowin through her veign
she knows whut she gotta do
she knows she gotta make it through
this her one last chance ta prove
That she got tha guts ta move
till she gets home n relaxes in tha booth
away from life n tha horrible truth
