Yeah, put me up on the headphones, homes
It's the ballad of a soldier
A ballad of a soldier
A ballad of a soldier
A ballad of a soldier
A ballad of a soldier
A ballad of a soldier
Grew up with tricks, politics got me thinkin' (Uh)
Growin' up in the streets and you know I'm straight smokin'
Drinkin', livin' that life corrupted
In the streets where everybody is straight drug related (Uh)
The life of a G, as I grew up, and I
Never givin' a fuck, tryin' to throw it up
South Side when we ride, enemies are gonna hide
Gangbangin' every day, another homicide
That poor man died, and laid on the floor
Didn't wake up no more, livin' life so hardcore
And never realized the pain of sin
And then committed the wrong, drinkin' juice and gin
Fuckin' hoes by the dozen, fuckin' these sluts
And I'm stuck in this life and I don't know what's up
In a cage in a trap, they got me trapped
I scrap, the milli-mac, ese where you at?
The lifestyle corrupted, everybody know I'm fuckin'
Never had a lady 'cause you know in gangbang I trusted
I never gave a fuck, that's the way it is
Ballad of a soldier, the life of sin
It's the ballad of a soldier (Soldier)
On these streets we live (A ballad of a soldier)
That's why
It's the ballad of a soldier (A soldier)
Trying to survive (A ballad of a soldier)
This life, this gang life
Back on the block, straight on the corner slangin' rocks
With them on my socks, in my tongue and it don't stop
Policeman tryin' to stop this caravan
I'm rollin' down the block with this contraband, yeah
Gangbangin' is heavy, so I'm steady
With my Chevy, gang habitats and I'm ready
I'm lookin' at corners, the homies locked up
Makin' that profit and then the hoes get fucked
Yeah, the streets never gonna lie
So I'ma realize on the street homicide
Street sweeper, I'm growin' up livin' life so deeper
Mama cried, but I'ma keep on survivin' on the sidelines
Without no sunshine
Grew up slangin' pounds, fuck the dimes
Enemies start sleepin', so I start fuckin' creepin'
Makin' the territory mine and I'm reachin'
Out, gettin' these fool all sprung
And I'm, I'm makin' buddy motherfuckers and I'm from
Lookin' at the community, they all cracked out
I'm a South Side soldier and I'm makin' my money, no doubt
And that's the politician lovin' that shit
And then they lock you up, throw you out, make you a snitch
Fuck that shit, I keep it gangsta all day
Sittin' in a cell with God to pray
It's the ballad of a soldier (Soldier)
On these streets we live (A ballad of a soldier)
That's why
It's the ballad of a soldier (A soldier)
Trying to survive (A ballad of a soldier)
This life, this gang life
Pop, pop, pop, pop, bullets keep flyin'
Enemies dyin', homicide lines
Yeah, they givin' homies straight stripes
Gangbanged the fuck out, now he's facin' life
A menace to the public
Gangbangin' was his subject (Uh)
Now he grew up heartless, and little youngsters lookin' up to the G
He tryin' to hit 'em, school 'em up, live a penitentiary
The cycle continues, the war still's on
Gangbangin' still is wrong, the shit's so strong
Until the motherfuckin' government realized
There's homies on the street that's straight fuckin' dyin'
No money, locked up, parole violation
Stuck in the system, fuck incarceration
And some homies makin' it, but not givin' back
There's homies still on the streets, homies still on crack
Pipes, smokes, jones, and bongs
Lifelong gangbang strong
But that's the way it is, the ballad of a soldier
When your homeboy lays dead on your shoulder
It's the ballad of a soldier (Soldier)
On these streets we live (A ballad of a soldier)
That's why
It's the ballad of a soldier (A soldier)
Trying to survive (A ballad of a soldier)
This life, this gang life
