D-Smoke - Soldier Fantasy lyrics
rate meD-Smoke - Soldier Fantasy
Something that makes us all happy
Do anything to take us out of this gloom
Sing a song, play guitar, make it snappy
You are the one who can make us all laugh,
But doing that, you break out in tears
Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had
We wouldn't have known you all these years. Yea.
Well uncle Sam's saying "be a man."
Cause he don't understand all the thoughts, running thru my head on the day we land.
He sayin do it for your country, they need a hand.
They started this war, we just want to see it end
We in enemy land, hearin bombs n sirens.
Till our lives is lost, baby mom is cryin.
And if I hesitate a second my squad is dying,
When the shots are fired, it's the cost of trying.
They hold guns worth less than an arrow
While I'm sittin in this birds nest like a sparrow.
Desert storm camo I'm dressed in apparel.
Pocket full of hope, held breaths and a barrel.
I can't sleep so I stand a wake.
It's sad I'm more afraid of god then a hand grenade.
Your man will lay em face down when the orders out
I was taught kill em all let god sort em out.
Dear Mr. Fantasy, play us a tune,
Something that makes us all happy
Do anything to take us out of this gloom
Sing a song, play guitar, make it snappy
You are the one who can make us all laugh,
But doing that, you break out in tears
Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had
We wouldn't have known you all these years. Yea.
Well I promised my girl I'd make it back alive.
But she don't look at me the same when I ask "Am I?"
I'm hearin bullets in the wind when its passing by.
This post-traumatic stress won't ever let me laugh or cry.
I ain't no decorated marine.
Back home, only thing decorated a tree
Just a home town heroes what I'm aiming to be
But my homes ground zero, n it lays in defeat
Uh, I'm constantly waking up in a cold instant.
The wars over, but my thoughts are being told different
I'm having vivid dreams thinking of those poor children
Left for dead, I'm wishing I could go with em.
Military mind, living too long alone.
Highway of heroes so I bring em along the road,
And pray for em. bring em to god n hope.
Better days for someone to sing em a song that goes;
Dear Mr. fantasy, what up.
Dear Mr. Fantasy, play us a tune,
Something that makes us all happy
Do anything to take us out of this gloom
Sing a song, play guitar, make it snappy
You are the one who can make us all laugh,
But doing that, you break out in tears
Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had
We wouldn't have known you all these years. Yea.
