Soldier's song, marching on, on
Hoping to see home
If I die before I
See your smile just one more time
Soldier's song, marching on, on
Hoping to see home
If I die before I
See your smile just one more time
[Verse: J. Cole]
Sometimes I question whether this shit matters
Puttin' substance into something in a world so used to instant gratification
I found this instrumental on my phone while on vacation
Ib sent it a year ago or so
I probably heard it before, but slept on it, you know?
Shit don't always connect as soon as you press play
At times you gotta step away, do some livin'
Let time provide a new prescription, givin' truer vision
I dibble-dabble in a few religions
My homie constantly telling me 'bout Quran, puttin' me on
I read a few pages and recognize the wisdom in it
But I ain't got the discipline for stickin' with it
Now I'm on the way to London, got a show for seven digits
I'm wonderin' just when did I become my biggest critic?
I wanna be my biggest fan, like how I was when didn't nobody know my jams
Today my son said, "Dad, let go my hand"
Reminded me one day he's gonna be his own man
And my job is to make sure he's equipped
I gotta make sure he not no bitch 'cause niggas bound to try him
If I said I was the toughest growin' up, I would be lyin'
I had a fear of gettin' punched while everybody eyein'
Add to that a constant fear of dyin'
By gunshot wound, the other violent type of endings
I kept a tough demeanor on the surface but was mostly just pretendin'
Luckily my bluff was workin' way more often than not
But sometimes a nigga pulled my card, tryna expose me for a fraud
And with my reputation at stake
I was scufflin' just to save face
Couple wins, couple losses, some broken up too quick to call it
My last scrap was with Puff Daddy, who would've thought it?
I bought that nigga album in seventh grade and played it so much
You would've thought my favorite rapper was Puff
Back then I ain't know shit, now I know too much
Ignorance is bliss and innocence is just ignorance before it's introduced to currency and clips
Or bad licks that have a nigga servin' three to six, shit
[Chorus: J. Cole, Bas & 6LACK]
Soldier's song, marching on, on
Hoping to see home
If I die before I
See your smile just one more time
[Bridge: Bas]
Soldier's song
I could be one to lean on
Time will right the wrongs
Won't be long
How can we grow any closer?
How can we grow any closer?
How can we grow any closer?
How can we grow any closer?
Something inside of me's tryna crawl up to the surface
Something is suddenly smothering, stopping me
Stubbornly getting its way (Way), way (Way)
Drowning out the wave (Drowning out)
I've got a reason to believe that I'll turn out just fine
Soldier's song
[Outro: Diddy]
Lord, please guide our steps
Watch us, cover us
So that every move we make is in alignment with Your will
Your purpose
Please fill us with Your spirit
Keep us forever in the present
For presence makes the strongest fathers
Teach us how to lead
Show us how to love
战士的歌，踏着上，上
希望能看到家
如果我我先死
见你的笑容只是一个更多的时间
[诗：J.科尔]
有时候，我的问题，这是否狗屎事项
Puttin'物质进入世界东西，所以使用即时的满足感
我发现我的手机上这种工具在度假
IB送了它在一年前左右
我之前可能听说过，但睡在这，你知道吗？
妈的并不总是只要你按下播放键连接
有时，你得一步之遥，做一些活着
让时间提供了一个新的处方，得到安宁更真实的视觉
我挖洞，涉足一些宗教
我的哥们常对我说“布特古兰经，puttin”我的
我读了几页，并认识到它的智慧
但是，我是不是得到了朵朵的纪律吧
现在我的方式去伦敦，得到了七位数表演
我很迷惘我刚当成为我最大的批评？
我想是我最大的粉丝，就像我是怎么了的时候也没人知道我的果酱
今天我的儿子说：“爸爸，放开我的手”
我想起有一天他会是自己的男人
而我的工作就是确保他的装备
我得确保他没有绑定任何婊子“的原因黑鬼尝试他
如果我说我是最艰难的慢慢生长了，我会撒谎
我有一个担心刚开的打孔而大家eyein'
添加到快要枯萎的，一个持续的恐惧
通过枪伤，其他暴力型的结局
我一直在一个艰难的风度表面上但大多只是pretendin'
幸运的是我在虚张声势往往不是干活的方式
但有时一个黑人把我的卡，tryna暴露我要诈骗
和我岌岌可危的声誉
我scufflin'只是为了挽回面子
夫妇胜夫妇的损失，一些打散太快叫它
我最后的报废是与吹牛老爹，谁也已经想到了吗？
我买了七年级的黑鬼专辑，发挥了这么多
你会想过我最喜欢的说唱歌手是吹牛
当时我不知道，妈的，我现在知道的太多了
无知是之前它的推出货币和剪辑幸福和纯真只是无知
或坏的舔有一个黑人塞尔三至六个月，狗屎
[合唱：J.科尔，巴斯＆6LACK]
战士的歌，踏着上，上
希望能看到家
如果我我先死
见你的笑容只是一个更多的时间
[桥：巴斯]
士兵之歌
我可能是一个可以依靠的
时间会斜纠偏
不会很长
我们怎样才能成长的目标？
我们怎样才能成长的目标？
我们怎样才能成长的目标？
我们怎样才能成长的目标？
我里面的东西是tryna爬起来的表面
有什么东西突然窒息，阻止我
固执地获取其路（路），路（路）
淹没了波（淹没）
我有一个理由相信，我会变成就好了
士兵之歌
[结尾：老爹]
