Tonart: G minor
Verse 1
Gm
This one goes out to all
the soldiers in the streets.
I didn't make it to dance too.
It could be the last dance.
Dm
So I want you to stop.
Gm
Stop and think for a minute.
Dm
Tell me, why are you killing yourselves?
Why are brothers killing brothers?
Why is anyone killing each other?
Street soldier

God help me

Dm
Gm
God help me
Dm
Just another day, another drive by,
just like that somebody else dies,
Gm
but you have a number in your hand,
Cm
Dm
Gm
is it up to date?
How many times do you think
Dm
you can take someone else,
before the knock at the door comes
Gm
and you recognize it?
It's death.
Cm
Looking you straight in the eyes.
Dm
Gm
A street soldier checking in.
It's life.
Dm
I don't know about you my brother,
but I don't want to go out like
Gm
Cm
Dm
that.
Gm
How many times can someone tell you
Dm
Gm
that killin' makes a man?
On the block that I grew up on,
Cm
Dm
if you was livin', you was in, man.
Gm
Dm
Gm
Yeah, I see what you're saying.
Dm
So many people locked down.
It's hard to keep up with all
Another victim.
Cm
Dm
Gm
Another sucker to the game.
can't knock a man for trying to survive.
I know what's up.
Gm
You know what time it is, man.
Cm
But why survive for 4 or 5 years,
Dm
Gm
Dm
Gm
and check in the rest of your life?
I wanna give up my life like that.
Nah, it just don't seem
Dm
Gm
There's got to be an other way.
What's up, street soldier?
Everybody got to be down for themselves,
don't they?
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
Dm
Oh, man, I'm a fighter, man
Ten
Gm
You've seen them go down
One day you're just kickin' it
Cm
Dm
Laughin', lovin'
Gm
Dm
Gm
Such a shame, such a shame
You've gotten so cold
Gm
Watchin' your brother die
Sometime I wonder
Cm
Dm
Gm
You're walkin', but are you really alive?
You lost the ability to love,
Dm
F
Dm
what a price to pay.
Gm
Sisters and brothers,
they don't even know you anymore.
Cm
Dm
Gm
They don't even come
near you anymore.
When you first started slinging that dope,
you know,
F
you said you was doing it for the money.
Dm
Gm
Now the same crackhead jokes
you used to make about somebody else,
they making them about you, man.
Life sure is hard.
I remember you, man.
When you weighed about 210,
Dm
you know, trying to handle
F
Dm
Gm
your business.
Dm
Now you're weighing a buck
Gm
Cm
and a quarter.
Dm
Gm
Don't go out like this, man
Dm
Gm
Dm
Don't go out like this
It's never too late
Gm
Dm
Gm
Pour yourself together, man
Cm
Gm
Killing it where it is, to live is great
If you can live
You can live
