Troubled Soldier Lyrics by Simphiwe Dana

Zandisile

0

[Verse 1]
There's a place where I must be
Over the rainbow there's a place for me
Wallowed in self-pity too long
Woke up and the morning, train was gone
Felt the chains pulling me down
All the way deep down underground
Saw my heroes dropping
Lethargy set in like disease
Troubled soldier in the know
Burdened by the future past
Fighting, fighting we're all fighting
For a chance under the sun
[Verse 2]
There's a chance we aught to be
Deadened by the future passed
It's all in the choices we make
Will we swim or will we drown
It's the crunch that makes us see
What we are and what we're not
It's the crunch that makes us see
What we are and what we're not
