Jun Tzu - Here Lies a Soldier (Radio 1 Exclusive) lyrics

I need you's all to listen to this one Turn it up a wee bit in the headphones for me This song here Is a very personal tune, you know This song is about all the people That have pa**ed away in the struggles Doesn't matter where you're from Doesn't matter what side of the divide What side of the walls you're from What Country you're from This is a song about people That have laid down their lives For what they seen as a just cause Whether you agree or not, you know Just respect the lives That were lost And all the struggles in the troubles And in the world This song is called here lies a soldier Exclusive for Radio 1 Charlie Sloth Fire in the booth... Wait to ye' hear Here lies a soldier of the cause A soldier of the wars From underneath the ground He calls me Here lies a soldier of the cause A soldier of the wars From underneath the ground He calls I don't know if i can do this anymore I've been down this same road Many times before I'm having dreams I'm gonna die before I'm twenty four You will fall to my knees And pray God's gonna help me Because the world doesn't care about the poor It only cares about the wealthy We need to play our positions We need to keep each other healthy Am I my brothers keeper? Yes I am I play the hand that was dealt me Because I'm trapped in this maze And I'm not talking 'bout the prison My da was in back in the days I'm talking 'bout me My own personal ways Been a victim of my own grief I've saw people die Witnessed terrible murders up in these cold streets Too many funerals Too many tears Dedicated to the families and to their peers Here lies a soldier of the cause A soldier of the wars From underneath the ground He calls me Here lies a soldier of the cause A soldier of the wars From underneath the ground He calls I've stood at too many funerals Over the years Dressed in black suits And wearing new shoes Burying my peers Staring deep down the grave From underneath my tears People die People grow old And people grow beards And people cry 'cause people don't know from where the evil appears But people try, it's just the evil's severe And no one seems to know The reason why we're here Everybody's just walkin' round this giant sphere Pickin' fights with each other and buying beer Watchin' television and dyin' of fear Terrorism's on the television Yet again People can't you see That we the people need to change People always like to blame the leaders But it's us We're the people that we need to blame I believe in the cause And I believe that we'll prevail Believe me Here lies a soldier of the cause A soldier of the wars From underneath the ground He calls me Here lies a soldier of the cause A soldier of the wars From underneath the ground He calls me The sectarian violence in the silence Was never silent Because the tyrants Divided the Bibles And lied to us And then provided us with vileness The media continually riled us Everyday upon their TV screens They defiled us Promotin' images that blind us We created this war And left the people mindless Vigilantism rises Next thing kids are getting k**ed in drive bys Is it ever gonna change When the propaganda multiplies it Should I get myself involved No, I don't advise it I wouldn't wana have to stand And read your graves inscribment Here lies a soldier Another victim of the troubles In Northern Ireland Just another statistic Just another folder Nowadays everybody's trying to paint the perfect picture But nothing's over Here lies a soldier of the cause A soldier of the wars From underneath the ground He calls me Here lies a soldier of the cause A soldier of the wars From underneath the ground He calls me This song is dedicated to all the men That have laid down their lives All the men that have suffered and died In the wars of mankind This song is dedicated to the women All the women that have suffered And to the children To the children that were starved And affected by the troubles Just want ye's to take a wee minute Remember all the folk that have pa**ed away All the boys All the ladies All the kids Show a bit of respect, you know
