letra de street soldiers - l.o.l.

[verse 1]

in 1993, on march 22nd
while i was locked up, coming up with hit records
it was late in the evening, when i got the bad news
the one i loved so dear had to finally pay her dues

i tell you like this, life could be a trip
that’s why sometimes i stay fresh off that dip
or maybe i’m a soldier, just like my stepdad
doing all i could to be the man that i am

it’s such a tragedy, that’s why sometimes i cry
cause mama got caught up in a bus off homicide
and to this day, i can never tell a story
how helen dale died on that early monday morning

but sh-t does happen, and life goes on though
if we ever find him, it’s gon’ be some gun smoke
unless the lord, he finally takes his given place
it won’t be another motherf-ckin’ murder case

that’s why i lay low, slowly peepin’ out the scenery
hopin’ that the dark finally sheds some light on me
prayin’ to my father with my hands held high
livin’ day by day, in this f-cked up state of mind
it’s drivin’ me crazy, and all for me to take it
i often wanna reach for the nine nickel plate
one big ol’ bang to the head, and it’s all over
rest in peace, to another young soldier

[chorus]

street soldier in the army of life
street soldier, stay strong
street soldier in the army of life
street soldier, stay strong

[verse 2]

my mental anguish caused pain and led me astray
and at the age of 13, i moved to l. a
didn’t know much about the streets that i roamed
but i had to learn quick, because these streets’ll make you stand strong

a young soldier, that’s what i be
because my mental was deprived of the woes of society
but still i remain a full cruise like clothes
and hold my own and watch my back and stay up on my toes

never did live within the situation
i kept my bids to myself to avoid incarceration
no one knows me but me, that’s the way it’s gotta be
cause infiltration’s not allowed up in my crime family
never seen a man cry until a man died like scarface
but still i’m faced with homicides every day, d-mn
what’s new and poppin’ on the block
cause every time i turn around somebody on my block, they got shot

but i remain up on the streets
cause it’s the only life i know
a ghetto child
a street soldier

[chorus]

street soldier in the army of life
street soldier, stay strong
street soldier in the army of life
street soldier, stay strong, stay strong

[verse 3]

back in the days, the world didn’t treat me kind
and i was lucky if i even had a piece of mind
tryin’ to maintain and cope in my younger years
keepin’ overlooked by all the ballers and the pens

needed more money and some green stacks
i had none of that, twistin’ through the hood with the homies
in they cadillacs, tryin’ to get paid, but i was still on show
cause every dime that i earned, i put away for my slaughter coat
and when i got it, fools banged on me
got off the school bus now, everybody sw-ngin’ on me
11 deep sh-t, i get them up, i”m by myself, can’t be scared
cause poppa ain’t raised no punks

i get to swappin’ with this one fool and knock him out
and everybody wanna know what i’m about
i guess they did what they had to do
cause in reality, if you ain’t watchin’ him, they watchin’ you

you ready to k!ll for your riches, the lifestyle
but what’s the point, they commit to shameless
but often mention, but if you trippin’ 96, your number’s chosen
life is lost by ghetto kids, street soldiers

[outro]

street soldier in the army of life
street soldier, stay strong
street soldier in the army of life
street soldier, stay strong
