Soldier Lyrics by RYVN

2020

[Chorus]
And you should never get your hopes up
And never think the world owes ya
If they 'gon doubt you, so what?
Handle yours like a soldier
Real ones all know, know I'm talkin' 'bout
Real ones all know what I'm talkin' 'bout
So you should never get your hopes up
'Cause I know the world never owes ya

[Verse 1]
Man, I always go the distance, never coming up short (Nah)
Anything without goals is a dumb sport (What?)
Playin' money ball, say you playin' money ball
Don't hit me with that bull, it's everywhere like a gun store (Brraah)
Could've swore many times I was done for (Nah)
I hit the bottom, there was nothing to get up for (No)
But something clicked up in my brain, I guess
I had to clean up since I'm the one who made the mess, yeah
Turn it all around, that's a one hundred and eighty
Now my streak hotter than a oven up in Hades (Oh)
'Cause I was eavesdroppin', I heard everything they sayin' (Ay)
And that was the final straw that got me motivated (Yeah)
I was in it, now I'm 'bout my business (Business)
Make ya chick strip in the back, she not a fitted (Ha)
Funny thing is she would've laughed up in my face a couple years back
Know I'm talkin' 'bout, ay, I know they hear that

[Chorus]
You should never get your hopes up (No)
And never think the world owes ya (Nah-nah)
If they 'gon doubt you, so what? (So what?)
Handle yours like a soldier (Soldier)
Real ones all know, know I'm talkin' 'bout
Real ones all know what I'm talkin' 'bout
So you should never get your hopes up
'Cause I know the world never owes ya

[Drop]
No, handle yours like a soldier, nah-nah
So what?
Like a soldier
No, real ones all know, nah-nah
'Cause I know the world never owes ya

[Verse 2]
Look, I used to get tips at my job (I did)
Nowadays, takin' trips as my job (It is)
If I never said I dipped, then I lied
'Cause I left how I was livin', now this is the life (It's true)
And all I had to do was make my circle smaller (Uh)
Kinda like Verdansk, you don't do that, you a goner
Takin' on a task, don't confuse me for a talker
You don't gotta ask, you just gotta make an offer (Woo)
Closed mouths, never got fed up in my old house (Never)
I'm a north star, never gonna go south (Never)
I was hungry, not alone, but I'm both now (Uh-huh)
It's sink or swimming, I don't plan on, let the boat drown
Diligent with it but also brilliant with it
They all flapping they jaws, but we really did did it (Haha)
If you listen to me, you just gonna hear facts
Know I'm talkin' 'bout, yeah, I know they hear that

[Chorus]
You should never get your hopes up (No)
And never think the world owes ya (Nah-nah)
If they 'gon doubt you, so what? (So what?)
Handle yours like a soldier (Soldier)
Real ones all know, know I'm talkin' 'bout
Real ones all know what I'm talkin' 'bout
So you should never get your hopes up
'Cause I know the world never owes ya

[Drop]
No, handle yours like a soldier, nah-nah
So what?
Like a soldier
No, real ones all know, nah-nah
'Cause I know the world never owes ya
No, handle yours like a soldier, nah-nah
So what?
Like a soldier
No, real ones all know, nah-nah
'Cause I know the world never owes ya
