Intro When you woven dreams around them It's hard to know, where to go When she believes when she says she’s gonna leave Chorus: Noah King I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder I’m a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder How the hell did I get here, what am I doing? I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder I’m a soldier in the war in the Devil’s soldier Man what the hell I'm doing here, why’d I even get here? Verse 1: Noah King Alcoholic tendencies man wanted felonies Cigarettes infested the flesh of little nee's Can't escape it, bottle after bottle With every set creates another dig for my mama Liquor on the curb for the homies in my sorrow So much oldie in me I'm buzzed till tomorrow Half my paycheck I took straight to the neck Then I wonder why my ex girlfriend left I try to kiss a new one she can smell my breath Seven in the morning taking forty’s to the head Confused all the time always spoke gettin shit Priorities lined always have to get lit Long as I'm faded I dream of getting famous But it'll never happen cuz I'm numb to real ass life And I could give a flying fuck what it seemed like A child hard in a grown mind being nice Chorus: Noah King I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder How the hell did I get here, what am I doing? I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's soldier Man what the hell I'm doing here, why'd I even get here? Verse 2: A-dub I envision my life to shine with a brighter glisten But time is ticking and grimy living's behind me nipping At my heels, further from Pepsi Cola's and happy meals To where I need to have swag or the cash to steal I wouldn't grab to steal the match to protect personas So I broke into the pad and stole those stash extra borders Said I could find between the mattress or the sofas But that wouldn't buy me Nike's nor a fresh controller My parents gave me chores until some level border But this would only make me go against the separate orders Started slipping on my classes and it left me cornered But if they didn't love ya, then they'll never told ya You might end up in a casket or a metal fortress If you get blasted or oppressed by the special forces I'm a soldier on this war on the Devil's shoulder Once you open up that door then you can never close it Chorus: Noah King I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder How the hell did I get here, what am I doing? I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's soldier Man what the hell I'm doing here, why'd I even get here? Verse 3 I'm a soldier in the war on the Devil's shoulder Smell the odor coming off this coke and Henny soda Smell the doja when I'm getting all this meddy rolled up I'm the reason that it's heavy up on every corner I'm the amphetamine when you sniffin yo speed I'm the promethazine when you sippin yo lean I'm the LSD that's infesting your spleen I'm the thought that be the girl just hit it and leave I'm a soldier on the shoulder of the Devil's side Tryna do what's right before electric chairs leave my belly fried I'm everything bad here to Singapore The rush criminals get us robbed and liquor stores Try to do right nah I just gave in I'm the thoughts that'd get you in the state pen A second guessing yourself that you'll never blow up Hold up, I thought I told ya Chorus: Noah King I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder How the hell did I get here, what am I doing? I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's soldier Man what the hell I'm doing here, why'd I even get here? Verse 4: Nieve Feel like I got em going to places I don't want to Surfing dark places you really don't wanna walk through Corners of my mind and avenues that will haunt you I see dead people at least it's someone to talk you Why all these troubles so heavy try to get up but it won't let me Memories in my mind that I constantly have been regretting Waking up in the sweat I swear somebody's out to get me Drowning without a paddle in the jungle no machete My lady she wouldn't let me didn't give it a try I used to believe in love but now I'm living a lie Living to die the truth it went up in a blaze The minute I saw the guilty evil look on her face I look to escape jumping out the window to fall But what I thought was a window ain't a window at all It's all in my mind, makes it even that much worse The Devil is taking over even rap my verse Chorus: Noah King I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder How the hell did I get here, what am I doing? I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's shoulder I'm a soldier in the war in the Devil's soldier Man what the hell I'm doing here, why'd I even get here?
