(Chorus)
I’m a soldier, I stay on the front line,
No matter what life throws, I’ll always grind,
From the bottom, I climb, never fall behind,
Can’t stop me, I’m built to shine, I’m a soldier.
(Verse 1)
Life knocked me down, man, I hit the ground,
Everything I knew, just crumbled all around,
Once had a dream, yeah, I was somethin' profound,
Now I’m in a bus, but I ain’t never backin’ down.
owned a business, had a quarter million home,
Thought I was on my way, man, I was in the zone,
Now I’m movin' in a bus, just tryna hold my own,
But I got fire inside, can’t be overthrown.
From the South Louisiana streets, where the roots run deep,
Faced the storm, fought the pain, and I didn’t sleep,
Every setback, a lesson, every scar I keep,
Life’s a mountain, I’m climbin’, no matter how steep.
(Chorus)
I’m a soldier, I stay on the front line,
No matter what life throws, I’ll always grind,
From the bottom, I climb, never fall behind,
Can’t stop me, I’m built to shine, I’m a soldier.
(Verse 2)
Livin’ in the bottom of the boot, I rise,
Dreams in my eyes, no disguise,
Lost it all but I see through the lies,
Resilience in my heart, yeah, that’s my prize.
Storms came big, I weathered the rain,
Lost the fame, feel the pain, but I remain,
Refuse to let the struggle be in vain,
Come back stronger even with the strain.
Got nothing but hope, and a will to fight,
Every day’s a battle, but I see the light,
Fightin’ through the darkness, I take flight,
A soldier in my soul, I own my right.
(Chorus)
I’m a soldier, I stay on the front line,
No matter what life throws, I’ll always grind,
From the bottom, I climb, never fall behind,
Can’t stop me, I’m built to shine, I’m a soldier.
(Outro)
Yeah, life tried to break me, but I’m still standin’,
Climbin’ these mountains, yeah, I’m commandin’,
A soldier’s heart, it’s never abandonin’,
From the bottom to the top, I’m still landin’.
