Hello god
it's time for me to go again
please give me the energy I need
to survive

Soldiers gave their lives
for their land they died
soldiers marching on to war
Soldiers gave their lives
so I ask you why
soldiers what you're fighting for

I'm a dark man in a former land
with no akapace and how can I exist
that's what I enlist to do it like this
a dark soldier yo brown to the skin

In the jungle yo where I roam
I can tell you people go back at home
this ain't the place you want to be
this ain't the place you want to be

The [bad word] is everywhere in a war
you can't [bad word] nobody but you gotta [bad word] somebody
fighting for the world that don't give up about me
that ain't the way it's supposed to be

Told me soldier try to live free
from negativity
'cause possibility is my energy
I'm just a play play play play play soldier

Soldiers gave their lives
for their land they died
soldiers marching on to war
Soldiers gave their lives
so I ask you why
soldiers what you're fighting for

I wake up in the morning all I hear is bullets
ringing ringing ringing ringing ringing in my ears
thinking of my love want to ease my fears
oh god can you give me the energy I need

Oh god can you help me
oh god can you save me
so I can see another day
I'm a man not a mouse
when I'm [bad word] to the evil land

Soldiers gave their lives
for their land they died
soldiers marching on to war
Soldiers gave their lives
so I ask you why
soldiers what you're fighting for

Soldier soldier marching on to war
tell me soldier boy what are you fighting for
for freedom the price is sometimes high
soldier tell me why let's all give peace a chance

The sparkle in my eyes keeps me alive
the blood in my arteries keep me in harmony
life after death is now pow pow pow pow
let me tell you how

To kill or to be killed is what the nation demands
to stay alive is my plan
man to man weapon to weapon
man to man weapon to weapon

I'm just a soldier for my land
it's time for me to go again
I'm just a soldier for my land
I'm just a soldier

Soldiers gave their lives
for their land they died
soldiers marching on to war
Soldiers gave their lives
so I ask you why
soldiers what you're fighting for

Soldiers gave their lives
for their land they died
soldiers marching on to war
Soldiers gave their lives
so I ask you why
soldiers what you're fighting for

I'm just a soldier
freedom
