Ballad of a Dead Soulja

Yeah, ballad of a dead soldier

This is the ballad of a dead soldier

This is the ballad of a dead soldier

Come play the ballad of a dead soldier

The plan to take command of the whole family

Though underhanded to be the man, it was planned

All my road dogs, official mob figures

Love to act up, the first to bomb when we rob ****

I can be lost in my own mind

To be the boss, only thoughts grip on chrome 9's

**** get tossed up, war scars, battlefield memories

Swore I saw the Devil in my empty glass of Hennessy

Talkin' to a **** on a tight leash

Screaming, "Fuck the police!", as I ride through the night streets

Little child runnin' wild, towards danger

What's the cause? Don't be alarmed, death to all strangers

Maybe I'm a madman

A pistol grabbing ****, unleash the Sandman

Promise a merciless retaliation, nothing is colder

Close your eyes, hear the ballad of a dead soldier

Thug for Life, I will be

This is the ballad of a dead soldier

A life of crime I will lead

Close your eyes, hear the ballad of a dead soldier

If you play the game, you play to win

This is the ballad of a dead soldier

It's a crazy world full of sin

Close your eyes

Completely lost, revenge at all costs

Payback's a bitch, switched, now the trick's crossed

Tossed up and never to be heard of

A single witness screaming, "Bloody murder, murder!"

Blast, tell me, homie, what you see now?

A blind man and a dead body, I'm ready to leave town

And get my cash though, hook up with Kastro

Homie, had to blast on the task force

Stupid coppers tried to play us out, never that

They took my money and my stash, time to get 'em back, haha

Upon my secret arrival

Two Glock .45s, time for survival

Death to my rivals, tell me, what you want, Lord?

Nobody left after the death of a druglord, haha

The situation's critical

Nothing is colder than hear the ballad of a dead soldier

Thug for Life, I will be

This is the ballad of a dead soldier

A life of crime I will lead

Close your eyes and hear the ballad of a dead soldier

If you play the game, you play to win

This is the ballad of a dead soldier

It's a crazy world full of sin

Close your eyes and hear the ballad of a dead soldier

Be a coward, put your hands to the Moon

When my Glocks rang out, the **** came out, "Boom"!

Who wanna see me in a challenge?

So merciless, I'm terrifyin' **** in my ballads, do you feel me?

Capo or Captain, one day I'll be the Don

Until then, remain strong

My only fear of death is reincarnation

Busting at my adversaries like a mental patient

To all my **** facing 60 years, sheddin' tattooed tears

Another suicidal on the tier

Takin' private planes, tryna survive the game

For all my homies that'll never be alive again

All they promise us is death, ****

Take a breath, come be the last one left, ****, it's real now

Feel it or fantasize it, ain't nothing colder

Listen, you can hear it, the ballad of a dead soldier

Thug for Life, I will be

This is the ballad of a dead soldier

A life of crime I will lead

Close your eyes, hear the ballad of a dead soldier

If you play the game, you play to win

This is the ballad of a dead soldier

It's a crazy world full of sin

Close your eyes and hear the ballad of a dead soldier

This go out to Kato, Mental, all the **** that passed away

Mutulu, Geronimo, Seyku, all the down-ass riders

All the **** that put it down, all the soldiers

All the **** that go through that day-to-day struggle

This is the ballad of a dead soldier!

All the **** that passed on

All the **** with ambition and money in they heart

All the **** that want some and that don't take none

This is the ballad of a dead soldier!

Police are so scared of us

All the feds, they aware of us

They wanna see us dead

They got pictures of a **** head, ballad of a dead soldier!

Tryin' to see me in chains, shit

Them ****'ll never breathe again

Before they put me in a cell, they'll see me in Hell

'Cause it's the ballad of a dead soldier!

Got my pistols cocked

Run the whole motherfuckin' block, fuck the cops!

The police? We run these streets, ****, huh

Ain't heard the ballad of a dead soldier!

Heh, these **** can't see me, half the world wanna be me

Multi-millionaire, shit, it ain't fair

But, ****, you know it's the ballad of a dead soldier!
