Soldier Lyrics

Artist: Lucky Dube
Album: The Other Side

Soldier
Stand for the truth you stand alone
government will cover up
i saw a man sitting in a room
holding a gun to his head
he said man oh man
what am I gonna do
I can't change the past but I can change the future
If I pull this trigger right now, right here
everything will be over
not a day goes by I don't see them in my dreams
not a day goes by I don't hear them screaming in my ears
begging for mercy, pleading innocent
since my heart is made up to be as cold
as the barrel of this gun I hold
I would pull the trigger anyway

chorus
I was a soldier, following instructions from a man
we have known as the general
so many medals, so many praises
nothing can take away the guilt
that I feel inside me
Government covered up every crime we committed
against human kind
not a day goes by, I don't see them in my dreams
not a day goes by, I don't hear them crying in my ears
