The kings taken back the throne
The useless seed is sewn
Then they say theyre cuttin off the phone,
Well tell um were not home
No place to hide
Youre fightin as a solider on their side
Youre still a soldier in your minds
But nothins on the line
Say its money that we need
As if there were only mouths to feed
And knowin no matter what you say
Theres some debts youll never pay
Workin for the church while you family dies
They take what they give you and they keep it inside
Every spark of friendship and love
Will die without a home
Hear the soldier groan
Or go at it alone
I can taste the fear
Lift me up and take me outta here
Dont wanna fight, dont wanna die
Just wanna hear you cry
Whos gonna throw the very first stone?
Oh, whos gonna reset the bone?
Walkin with your head in a sling
Wanna hear the soldier sing
Workin for the church while my family dies
Your little baby sisters gonna lose her mind
Every spark of friendship and love
Will die without a home
Hear the soldier groan
Well go at it alone
I can taste you fear
Its gonna lift you up and take you outta hear
And the bone shall never heal
And I cannot make you kneel
We cant find you now
But theyre gonna get their money back somehow
And when you finally disappear
Will they say you were never hear?
Youre workin for the church while your life falls apart
Singin Hallelujah with the fear in your heart
Every spark of friendship and love
Will die without a home
Hear the soldier groan
Well go at it alone
Hear the soldier groan
Well go at it alone
