Soldier


A soldier from birth 

Walks upon the earth 

Standing strong 

No matter whats wrong 

Taking a risk for the ones you love 

Praying to the heavens above 

I help in any way i can 

I ran 

down the path 

getting everybodys wrath 

I scream and shout

letting everything out 

not backing down 

no frown 

Been through so much 

rape, drugs, alcohol, and such 

made a new life 

and here i am 

being everything that i can 

i will be there 

so dont be scared 

ill hold your hand 

forever we stand 

together as one 

this chapter is not done 

we will show the world 

that we must stand together 

rely on one another

so for i am another soldier 

waiting for my command
