I'm Yo Soldier
Big Ed Lyrics

Yo, Funky Sons, help me out
I need the Sons of Funk's help on this song

I'm yo soldier (every soldier needs some thug love)
I am your soldier and every soldier needs some love from their thug partner

You'll never find another (every soldier needs some thug love)
There is no one else who can fulfill your needs as your soldier

Like me
I am unique and nobody else can replace me

Had my back ever since I was pulling 211's
You have been loyal to me since I was a robber

The rich dude, I was on my knees trying to shoot a seven
Even when I was in a bad situation at a rich man's place, you supported me

Even when there's no food in the fridge, you say you're lucky to have me
You are grateful for me, even when times are tough

Never tripped on the life I live
You have never judged me for the life I chose to live

You had my kid, you held my strap to prove it's for life
You showed your commitment to me by having my child and holding my gun

You got Lady Assassin tatted on your back, sometimes I don't act like I should
Even when I don't always act perfectly, you remain loyal to me (referring to Lady Assassin tattooed on the partner's back)

You still understand what I'm going through, the pressures from the hood
You are empathetic towards the struggles I face in the community

I'm trying to make it all good forever
I want to make our relationship perfect forever

I can't see living life without me and you together
I can't imagine a life without you by my side

I know I'm gone a lot trying to make it, but just have patience
I might not always be present but please be patient with me while I work hard to support us

It's all for you, my soul I'll stake it
I am doing all this for you, I am willing to risk everything for you

See you're a star, met you at the bar, seen you through the Cartier frames
I met you at the bar and I can see your potential through your Cartier frames

Excuse me miss, I'm Silkk the Shocker, TRU is the clique that I claim
Introducing myself, my name is Silkk the Shocker and I am a part of the TRU group

Money and wealth, good times and bad times, that just comes with the game
Having money, abundance or scarcity of wealth, good and bad times are all expected and a part of the game (referring to the thug lifestyle)

Don't trip on the females and shit, miss, look, that just, like, comes with the name
Don't worry about other women, that's just part of the lifestyle

I need a down girl that's down to ride
I want a supportive partner who is dedicated to our lifestyle

See that girl, look, 3-5-5 Ferrari parked up on the outside
Pointing out a fancy car to his partner

I live the life of a thug, that's why I'm never smiling
I live the life of a thug and it's a rough one, that's why I am never happy

Got out the projects with my thugs, I'm probably on some like island
I came out of the bad neighborhood with my friends, and I am probably on vacation on some island now

See, I'm a soldier and I need a soldierette like you
I am a soldier and I need a partner who is also a soldier, like you

Hot tubs, backrubs, celebrating over dinner for two
Enjoying some luxuries with his partner

Said you want to go to war, let's see if you can last for the 2nd round
If you want to be with me, you have to be able to endure tough situations (war)

And I don't know, there's something about ya, makes Silkk the Shocker want to settle down
I don't know why, but you make me want to settle down

I hang with killas and gees to get my cash on
I associate with killers and gangsters to earn money

I need a thug girl at night to get my smash on
I need a rough and tough girl at night for sex

Lingerie with the camoflague (camoflague)
Referring to his partner's lingerie with camouflage pattern

Hennessey with the weed, baby girl I'm at the front line
Drinking Hennessey and smoking weed, I am ready for anything at the front line (referring to a military or gang situation)

And we can do it til we weak (til we weak)
We can have sex until we are exhausted

A little Isley brothers, me and you, between the sheets
Listening to Isley Brothers music while being intimate with each other

In the game getting rowdy (Ungh!)
Being rough and tough in the thug lifestyle (grunt noise included)

But don't trip, 'cause tonight me and you gonna get bout it bout it
Don't worry, because tonight me and you are going to fight together and overcome anything

I'm yo soldier (every soldier needs some thug love)
I am your soldier and every soldier needs some love from their thug partner

You'll never find another (every soldier needs some thug love)
There is no one else who can fulfill your needs as your soldier

Like me
I am unique and nobody else can replace me
