[Verse 1] There used to be a time when, the world was at peace Nobody de-clared war, nobody had beefs Then people got power hungry, said no more democracy Got the US Government real angry Sending out soldier every day, 18 year olds that play Call Of Duty, out fighting iraquees Then they really want they families They thinking of going AWOL, they wanna go back to playing ball With they bro, they sit and they cry, wondering why They ain't cut out for this Nah, war ain't no game
The way it happens ain't the same You dreamed of getting medals, getting fame But this is different, your people dieing, your deeply crying You don't know what to do, run away or sh-sh-sh-sh-shoot It's really all the same to you, but nah, now you wan't honor You wanna defend your country You'll die with your homies cause you're all like T-O-Y soldiers, soldiers, s-s-soldiers Like T-O-Y soldiers, soldiers, s-s-soldiers Yeaa [Hook]
