Soldier by Calvin Russell Lyrics
I'm just a person
I don't claim no country
I just don't need a flag
To say who I am
Well, I come from my momma
Like you and your brother
This world is ours
It's all in your hands
I'm just a soldier
Fighting the sorrow
Holding my head up high
Won't beg steal or borrow
Oh and if not today
If not today, if not today
Maybe tomorrow
…
You know I'm only human
So I'll make my excuses
But there's one thing I know
One thing I can see
It might be too late
To change where we're goin'
But in your own mind
You can always be free
Yeah
I'm just a soldier
Fighting that sorrow
Holding my head up high
Won't beg steal or borrow
Oh and if not today
If not today, if not today
Then maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow
Yeah yeah
I don't claim no country
I just don't need a flag
To say who I am
Well, I come from my momma
Like you and your brother
This world is ours
It's all in your hands
I'm just a soldier
Fighting the sorrow
Holding my head up high
Won't beg steal or borrow
Oh and if not today
If not today, if not today
Maybe tomorrow
…
You know I'm only human
So I'll make my excuses
But there's one thing I know
One thing I can see
It might be too late
To change where we're goin'
But in your own mind
You can always be free
Yeah
I'm just a soldier
Fighting that sorrow
Holding my head up high
Won't beg steal or borrow
Oh and if not today
If not today, if not today
Then maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow
Yeah yeah
