[Jay-Z]This here's a ballad for all the fallen soldiersI'ma bout 'ta show you how a hustlers life (this is life man)and a soldier's life, parallelAnd the one thing they got in common is pain (forget about me for a second)Picture split screenOn one side we got a hustler getting ready for the block (human beings)Other side you got the soldier getting ready for bootcamp (soldiers)They're both at war (this is life)Stay with us[Chorus]Did you ever notice, before you think, life goes fastSo don't you worry, about what you see, it will pass[Verse 1]You lost him mama, the wars calling himFeel its his duty to fall in line with all of themHe's a soldierRose through the ranks as the head of your house holdNow its time to provide bankLike he's supposed tahNow just remember while he's going to NovemberTheres part of him growing upHis shirts soaks up your tears as he holds yahYour heart beatin so fast speeding his pulse upYeah i know it sucks, Life aint a rose budA couple of speed bumpsYou gotta take your lumpsOff to Bootcamp, the worlds facing terrorBin Laden been happenin in ManhattenCrack was anthrax back then, back whenPolice was Al'Qaeda to black menWhile I was out there hustling sinning with no religionHe was off the wall killing for a living[Chorus][Verse 2]Days turn to nights, nights turn to yearsYears turn to "how the fuck we make it in here?"My barracks average couple fights a dayGet you locked in a hole wont see the light of dayAnd I feel like I'm just writing my life awayI never thought shit could end up quite this wayThere's a war going on outside no man is safe fromI'm here for the good fight only the fakes runI'm here for the purple heart, if I cant take oneFor my team or my siblings whats my reason for living?I love my niggas more then anything elseThis war's about my family, me needin the wealthYou dont understand how useless as men we feltTill you become a 5 star generalShout out to my niggas that's locked in jailP.O.W.'s thats still in the war for real[Chorus]Your baby boy is getting grownSo your baby boy is moving onI've gotta chase (gotta chase it)If I'm gonna make it (gonna make it)Your baby boy is getting grownSo your baby boy is moving onI'm gonna make itEven if I gotta take it (gotta take it)[Verse 3]Mama said pray your sons becoming a manThis wars taxin to 'em like Uncle SamHe ain't gonna always make the right choice, understandEvery choice that he make he makes it for his famIt's death before dishonourAnd if hes gone you should honor his memoryDont cry we all gonna die eventuallyBut if he's locked in the penetentiary send him some energyThey all winners to me(What's up kid?)[Chorus]
