Intro:
This is a Soldiers Tale
I composed this to inform
those in uniform that.
the battle is yours sayeth the Lord but,
Too many fallen soldiers.
Picked off comrades in combat
from combatants armed with
napalm in all black.
With masks and all that.
That are trained to fall back
in public
But in the dark.
grenades in our chest.
See the dangerous armed man
is really ourselves,
and is found inside
each and every one of our lives,
and kept in,
In any second,
could deton….
nate a weapon
and end it.
See, this ammunition
is bad for business.
It actually takes what God gave you
and makes it sin.
See, sex with your wife turns into sex with men.
Or sex with one substantially less in age than him.
Or it makes you feel better about sex outside of marriage,
Cause your having it with Susie, Kim, Karen, or Shannon.
Or maybe your a smart man and you already get it.
but every chance you get you buy your stuff on credit.
But you cant understand why your wife is yelling,
cause she doesn’t want to spend her whole life indebted.
Are you a soldier or a slave,
Such a shame,
were all prisoners of war,
locked in Abu Grave.
When are we gonna get it.
Where all the same.
If your family falls
Were all gonna pay,
cause were Soldiers….
Channel:
Were Soldiers
Were Soldiers
fighting, Sniping
Running, Gunning
Not our will but yours be done
Hook:
Were Soldiers,
we walk with weapons drawn,
we promise to take care of what’s ours
at any cost,
Were soldiers,
Many harmed, and many lost.
To their own sin,
thats why we are armed with many bombs.
Were soldiers,
wont stand for it any more.
We plan put our families
back where they belong.
Were soldiers
this war’s already won.
So lets go,
Lets fight,
Its on,
thats right
were Soldiers.
Verse:
My wrist feels,
like my pencils a weapon,
it might spit lead
if you let it.
It will!
So sit still,
Dont get winded.
Lyrics a dead sprint.
so increase your regiment
if you dont get it.
Were getting ambushed.
and half of our men
are gonna end up in caskets
if this happens again.
so increase my rations.
Im at this again
Im bringing back men that caught in a slump
Then thrown over my shoulders and run.
but, Im none the wiser like Forest Gump
So,
Dont take me as a preacher,
I just heed the words .
of a few seedy veterans and learned.
They just said to spread it dont let burn.
the butter’s already churned.
You better not forget it.
If you let it will leave.
If God left it up to me.
Id be knee deep in sin.
But he gave me a gun,
said stand to your feet
We’re Soldiers
