Intro: Papoose] You wanna go to war let's get it in If war bring peace I'm with it then I don't start beef I finish it Ghetto soldiers we militant [Akon]: I don't like to fuss or fight, just tryin to live life right Don't take my kindness for weakness cause I will take your life First I will walk away, unless you push me to play That's somethin I know you'll regret so please don't forget [Chorus: Akon] I'm a ghetto soldier, desperado!!!! I'm a ghetto soldier, my gun sing oh!!!!!!! I'm a ghetto soldier, how wise and cold!!! I'm a ghetto soldier, my mind sing oh!!!!!! (HEY!!!) [Verse 1: Papoose The soldiers get trained by the lieutenant The lieutenant get all his orders from the Captain General, when I was young I got drafted Sent to the army of Brooklyn those bastards Fallen soldiers my homies lay in caskets They couldn't survive the Heat just like the Mavericks And I don't buy Wolf tickets from niggas But niggas be wolfin so I walk around with my Clippers Some of my people was alive for my struggle But didn't live to see my success They wanted to see me make it but got stripped naked And laid in the morgue cause of death So yo now that I'm successful how could I celebrate it They died early so in their eyes I never made it I ain't gonna give you my life you gotta take it Soldier, I'm goin out blazin [Chorus: Akon] I'm a ghetto soldier, desperado!!!! I'm a ghetto soldier, my gun sing oh!!!!!!! I'm a ghetto soldier, how wise and cold!!! I'm a ghetto soldier, my mind sing oh!!!!!! (HEY!!!) [Verse 2: Papoose] (Akon) We said the same thing at the same time I ain't knock on wood Black cat crossed my path my luck's still good Broke a mirror I ain't get seven years of bad luck Nothin bad ain't even happened my left eye jumped Put my hat on the bed when I walked in the room Swept my feet and I didn't even spit on the broom What I'm tryin to say is I'm not superstitious Akon what am I? (I'm a Ghetto soldier) My right hand itchin been had money kid I even opened the umbrella in the crib Bought my girl some shoes she didn't walk out of my life No bad luck I skipped the Po twice No superstition just wise intuition On the battlefield, get killed to do the killin By the way my good luck charm is a biscuit Ghetto soldier till the endin [Bridge: Akon] I don't like to fuss or fight, just tryin to live life right Don't take my kindness for weakness cause I will take your life First I will walk away, unless you push me to play That's somethin I know you'll regret so please don't forget [Chorus: Akon] I'm a ghetto soldier, desperado!!!! I'm a ghetto soldier, my gun sing oh!!!!!!! I'm a ghetto soldier, how wise and cold!!! I'm a ghetto soldier, my mind sing oh!!!!!! (HEY!!!) [Verse 3: Papoose] No pain no gain all the trauma is killin me Pain can't swim that's why I drown in the Hennesey Tied to the enemy run in your crib slump you in your fireplace And have smoke comin out of your chimney I can see straight through your plot and your trickery It don't mean shit to me I'm tryin to get to the bottom of it But I lost a whole lot of my energy Tryin to get to the bottom of a bottomless industry Nowadays all I got is my pride and my dignity You ridin with sympathy they say misery needs company Why keep them company you kiddin me? When I can grab a weapon and put him out of his misery Send shots at you to tell you I'm not playin When you fire back you let me know what you sayin This gun bustin it's like an unspoken language We communicate with our gun this shit is dangerous [Chorus: Akon] I'm a ghetto soldier, desperado!!!! I'm a ghetto soldier, my gun sing oh!!!!!!! I'm a ghetto soldier, how wise and cold!!! I'm a ghetto soldier, my mind sing oh!!!!!! (HEY!!!)
