[Lyric] Survival of a Soldier (Aisha Sekhmet)

Give it to me, give it to me

Verse 1:
Everyday we strivin tryna cope
Niggas losing lives losing hope
Lights out gang at your door
Balaclava gunnin with da scope
We only wanna win and get more
Up seems the only way to go
Interrogated nigga never told
Love or hate it streets are very cold
Having things ain't simple as it seems
Big dreams way beyond our means
Exotic be the motto we esteem
Designer shit fit for kings and queens
Always a nigga rising to the top
Long days in the trench shit hot
Rejected I could quit but I will not
I got the keys of lifе to open up shop

Hook:
Survival of a soldier, military mind of a vet
Thе world on my shoulder, I never gave up yet
Never give up
Survival of a soldier, military mind of a vet
The world on my shoulder, I never gave up yet
Never give up
Verse 2:
I could feel the pain of my brothers
Graduated out the Wonder Years
The block wide open ain’t no cover
Revenge here inside of these killing fields
Destruction outside ain’t no feelings
Situations iffy in the hood
The bag and the clout got em illing
We would leave tomorrow if we could
I guess you initiating bolos
Opps wiping out ya whole team
Reckless guerillas taking photos
Live fire exercise in these streets
They doing sucker shit with no honor
Hollering gang still wet behind the ears
Niggas need therapy I’m honest
God gave me blessings for my tears

Hook repeats

Bridge:

We from the side of homicide and broken dreams
Lost alotta troops on the team - Survival of a soldier
(Your left, your left, right, left)
They counted me out among the crowd
Neglected, disregarded I survived - Survival of a soldier
(Your left, your left, right, left)

Exploited my desire to achieve
Offered crumbs for my capabilities - Survival of a soldier
(Your left, your left, right, left)

Got it out the dirt to get cash
Some survived, some ain’t make it out the trap
Survival of a soldier
(Your left, your left, right, left)

Hook repeats
