American Soldier Songtext
von Bizzy Bone

For American soldiers

Yeah, I′m an American soldier
For all my soldiers in Afghanistan
Just an American soldier

So many soldiers standing on the block here
Trying not to get shot, whoa
Love my thug ways, oh, ayy
So many soldiers standing on the block here
Trying not to get shot, whoa

Love my thug ways, oh, ayy
I'm an American soldier
I′m an American soldier
Just an American soldier
American soldier


Same regimen, early in the morning like a veteran
It's the way we do it, can't nobody do it better, man
Afghan children cover up they women
And from here to River Jordan, you gon′ treat it like a gentleman
Come home, shell-shocked, we rebuild it block by block
President Obama, look at all the purple hearts I got

Can′t stop, won't stop, don′t stop
Jump up out the helicopter, fully aware of all the gunshots
Post up, set up position, train position
Thirty round in my magazine, M16
I done made my decision, God country, God willing

The land of the brave, the slaves, we God's children

When I die, I′m draped in flags
Of a bullet on my neck and take my backpack glass
I take a swig up out the glass, people don't know the half
Allah means Jesus and anybody can ask


So many soldiers standing on the block here
Trying not to get shot, whoa
Love my thug ways, oh, ayy
So many soldiers standing on the block here
Trying not to get shot, whoa
Love my thug ways, oh, ayy
I′m an American soldier
I'm an American soldier
Just an American soldier
American soldier

Kaboom, another kid gone

He ain't even get a sad song, that there a mad wrong
Ain′t have a choice, he doing what he told
He only nine years old
So what the hell is this kid doing in a war zone?
That′s something King no one condone
Flat out, that there is wrong
We modernize because we understand the change of tone
I seen Iraq, it's like everyone′s poor
Talked to the corps, said this wasn't about oil
Then what we there for?

He told me all about conditions
How it started as a peace mission
But clearly Saddam just wasn′t listening
We'll probably battle ′til the end of time, but that's a war
Sutter like Zeus if he clash with the homie Thor
Jesus is the Lord

And Jehovah and Allah and that's my only word
And as I′m holding up my fist and it ripples in the wind
Like the American flag and that there there′s a prayer

So many soldiers standing on the block here
Trying not to get shot, whoa
Love my thug ways, oh, ayy
So many soldiers standing on the block here
Trying not to get shot, whoa
Love my thug ways, oh, ayy
I'm an American soldier
I′m an American soldier
Just an American soldier
American soldier
