Soldier keep on marching on Head down till the work is done Waiting on that morning sun Soldier keep on marching on A bond like military service No you couldn't purchase The chemistry me and my homie T brought to the surface Hangin' and rappin' we makin' music with a purpose Daily writin' verses, tryin' to get about the circus The city feelin' our passion, wantin' us to give a mention Freestylin' from A to B, don't matter the direction We were workin' on our craft, tryna find our flow's perfection Legit rappers, with that life came the ballin' We were climbin' over school prison gates I got caught in T caught me before I broke my neck from fallin' It's funny, we were desperate to get inside them courts When in a couple years, I'd be trapped within the same walls Like my energy was testin' me to get a little taste Of my destiny and where my future headed But at the time, I was livin' free like tomorrow ain't cemented Livin' for the memories and enemies beheaded We ain't finna leave until we hit a three-pointer We had a proper game when T called up his older brother After we'd be ballin', hit his crib and start talking Me and T were chillin at J's, more often Hittin' dope It's started, going by to say hello T's older bro but treated me like his own To an unguided kid, disowned in his own home He supplied the food, the roof and game I had to know Now go Soldier keep on marching on Head down till the work is done Waiting on that morning sun Soldier keep on marching on Ohh ohh Ohh ohh Ohh ohh Ohh ohh I remember looking like a kid in a cage Yet, surrounded by these animals Twice my age J needed me and T to be a runner Said we'd be protected by shooters on every corner And that was true, but when competition had arrived It seemed like someone innocent be the one to die Promoting all these drugs, I realized over time We promoting these drugs more than we promote our rhymes And before we knew it, everybody using speed I seen a dollar in it, but saw it seduce T He said I should give it a go, but I don't fold I watch him stay up from sun come to sun go I'd never seen T, this is easy to explode Within a few weeks, J and T came to blows Over something typical, I think a money drought J told his brother, get out T hollered, peace out I tried to stop him leaving, saying This finna get better And are you really walking from this cheddar Cause together, we be making pay And if you go, yo T, I gotta stay I don't got the same love waiting outside the game He said I don't blame you But if I can make a change, YoLAY you can change too You can hold it down, solo or continue to recruit Conflicted on which way I wanna ride Cause T's eyes hoped that I'd be leaving by his side And over time, the drugs took a hold over J Missed his little brother, but acting like he ashamed Paranoid over all the homie's in the hood I can tell he had some other problems underneath the hood Turns out he owed a bikie gang about 30 G Hitting the buzzer to no answer, ain't occurred to me He'd be in some deep drama with a herd of beast Bound to happen, I just wish I gave the word to flee Leave town and live to fight another day Now grown men wait on my command either way With J and T gone, I wish they left on better settings Cause that gang came back later with AK-47s Soldier keep on marching on Head down till the work is done Waiting on that morning sun Soldier keep on marching on
