[Intro]
Left!
Left!
Left, Right Left!
[Verse 1]
I was sitting down on the benches, now a nigga here fighting wars in the trenches
It's a war with myself and, I'm really tryna break down the mental defenses
Tankers and rifles, fighting for survival, nigga it's a missile crisis
We got demons on the field like, tell me, how could I not fight this?
Look, I know I don't spend enough time with you
Always doing something else
And I know I always go ghost on ya
I got problems I face by myself, young nigga
Try to keep my head to the sky, cause demons really tryna harm me
Don't matter the day, don't matter the month, my nigga I'm March like an army, nigga
Know I messed up, but I own up to it
Only reason I be here, is cause I pulled myself through it
Wear a smile like a shirt, and my cover, never blew it
So, of course you would say, "oh my, never knew it"
Never came to ya, hate asking favours
Saving everybody, but I don't have a saviour
In too deep, gotta fight till its over
If I go down, just know I'm a soldier
[Hook]
Left, Left, Left, Right, Left!
Left, Left, Left, Right, Left!
Left, Left, Left, Right, Left!
Left, Left, Left, Right, Left!
Don't gotta do it on ya own, nigga
But if you do, make sure you come home ,nigga
Yeah, march till it's over
You already know I'm a soldier
[Verse 2]
War on my mind, you already see that it's reaching the peak
Gotta ask him twice, cause you already know that niggas do not speak
Guns blazing, and we steady aiming, fight through the day and we fight through the night
These demons, they dangerous, don't hesitate just to shoot them on sight
Really a tragedy, too many casualties, nigga you really should pay keen attention
Been in a war, we been going this far, and we really been hoping for some intervention
Step on the field, and we being shot down, I mean honestly we need some more fire power
Rise up the tankers, and rise up the rifles, right on these demons, we gon' let it shower
Waving the banners, look at the radar, look at the scanners
We out here my nigga, taking this big disadvantage, turning it to an advantage, yeah
Said I'm in too deep, gotta fight till its over
Never back down, never back down
That's an order, soldier
[Hook]
Left, Left, Left, Right, Left!
Left, Left, Left, Right, Left!
Left, Left, Left, Right, Left!
Left, Left, Left, Right, Left!
Don't gotta do it on ya own, nigga
But if you do, make sure you come home ,nigga
Yeah, march till it's over
You already know I'ma soldier
[Bridge]
*distorted humming*
*sounds of gunshots*
[Hook]
Left, Left, Left, Right, Left!
Left, Left, Left, Right, Left!
Left, Left, Left, Right, Left!
Left, Left, Left, Right, Left!
Don't gotta do it on ya own, nigga
But if you do, make sure you come home ,nigga
Yeah, march till it's over
You already know I'm a soldier
