ERYKAH BADU lyrics : "Soldier"

Mmmmm
See he's organized
And he's on the ball

Never miss a day of school
And he's an underdog
Wanna learn more and more

Pa and mama taught him good
He's about to change the face
Of yo ghetto neighborhood

Walking to school today
Saw a brother on the streets
Seem like errthang was cool

Said the brother's packing heat
Oop oop
Then everything changed

Cause he saw his own wings
And his mother was sad
They will last

Time will past
Cause I


Wondering we're talking bout
Errbody know what dis song's about
Dey be trying to hide the history

But they know who we are
DO OO you want to see
Errybody rise to this degree?

Raise ya hands high if you agree
Just say Yessireeee ooooh,
Yessiree

If you agree say,
Yessireeeeee ooooohh,
Yessiree

Ugh
Come on
Ugh

Break it down say
Mmmm, mmhhh
Hey hey (shoop)

Mmmm, aaaye
Hey hey (shoop)
Mmmm, oooh

Hey hey (shoop)
Mmmm, oooh
Hey


Now to my folks think delivery sweet,
Well dey gone $#&@ around and push the leap

To the girls on perscrptions pills,
I know how ya feel
To my boys in iraqi fields

This ain't no time to kill
To my girls in therapy,
See I'm a tell you this fo' free

To my folks up on the hill,
With the cake and dollar bills,
You need to watch the dirty cop

Dey the one you need to watch
I'm talking bout the dirty cop
Dey the one you need to WATCH

STOP

You get the wake up call

When you saw the buildings fall
Bowties with the finer cars
Get ya money dollar bill ya'll

Bowties with the finer cars
Get ya money dollar bill ya'll
To my folks on the picket line

Don't stop til you change dey mind
I got luv fo' my folks
Baptized when the levees broke

We gone keep marchin' on
Until you hear dat freedom song
And if you think about turning back

I got the shotgun on ya back
And if you think about turning back
I got the shot gun on ya back
BLLAAAA (BLAC!)


Wondering we're talking bout
Errbody know what dis song's about
Dey be trying to hide the history
But they know who we are
Dooooo you want to see

Errybody rise to the NEXT degree?
Raise ya hands high if you agree
Just say Yessireeee ooooh,
Yessiree
If you agree say,
