Lyrics
0:15Uh if I can teach somethin' so dear
0:18And hope somebody learn somethin' from it
0:21And give it back
0:23They can't break me or shake me
0:24They too fake to come kill me
0:25Think they faith this was satan
0:27They mistake me I'm filthy
0:28Rich off the ghetto madness
0:29So now they want to dare me
0:31It's gonna be a murder confront me
0:33The burners are empty
0:34Middle Passage I made it
0:35I'm from the land of David
0:37The Nazarene of Bethlehem
0:38They had me wrapped in blankets
0:39That bunch of backward gangsters
0:41That sign of Alpha Davis
0:42Snitches with smile-like faces
0:44Got you blowin' trial I hear this
0:45Hopin' my child can see through
0:47This tryna be a good daddy
0:48I was there when she was born
0:49And she'll be there when I'm buried
0:51Kind o' waitin' is scary
0:52All my years have prepared me
0:54What I fear is my temper I subject to the center
0:57Right through a man's soul
0:58Straight through his eyes straight through his heart
1:00I'm still alive how did I make it this far
1:02'Cause I been high
1:03I been low searchin' for a way to go
1:05Every single night I pray
1:08And Lord I'm on this battleground lost
1:09Just waitin' to be found
1:10I guess it's just a warrior's way
1:13This is the song for my warriors
1:19A warrior song Bravehearted
1:25And strong definition of a warrior
1:28Definition of a warrior
1:30Gonna keep marchin' on to
1:33The sound of her own beatin' drum
1:35Like King Nasir fightin' the
1:37British regime I can't cope my existence
1:39Is hope for younger teens who lost in their world
1:41Earlier this year I buried my queen in a gold casket
1:44Your mother's the closest thing to
1:46God that you ever have kid I'm askin'
1:48What would you do at your own mom's funeral
1:50Want to pick her up out of it this can't be real
1:53Tellin' my daughter grandma's gone but
1:55I can't keep still
1:55I can't go on responsible for so many
1:58Her last days at the hospital
2:00Visits from family
2:01I'm tryin' not to bust shots at n***as
2:03Wishin' death on other n***a's mothers
2:05Ain't right but why mommy
2:06She raised me in the projects alone
2:08Her untimely exit from her heavenly body
2:11Got me ready to embody somethin' quickly
2:13Can't be happy f**k a party she can't party with me
2:16So your apologies are burnin' ya own souls
2:18To the kids with no parents at home grab a whole
2:21This is the song for my warriors
2:26A warrior song
2:31Bravehearted and strong definition of a warrior
2:38Uh warriors
2:38Gonna keep marchin' on
2:40To the sound of her own beatin' drum
2:44Fight 'til the fight is over
2:45For my peoples I die see
2:47When you thought they were soldiers
2:48They turned out to be nobodies
2:49I think they out to get me
2:51Helpless was livin' sinful
2:52If you was me
2:53All this pain I'm feelin' would bend and killed you
2:55I'm a Warrior
2:57It only made me stronger
2:58But in my head it gets darker
2:59Who wishin' evil on ya
3:01Sometimes I wish I was dead
3:02But I took heed to the 'cause
3:03I'm a Warrior yeah
3:06'Cause I been high
3:07I been low searchin' for a way to go
3:09Every single night I pray
3:12And Lord I'm on this battleground
3:13Lost just waitin' to be found
3:15I guess it's just a warrior's way
