《Soldier’s Lament》歌词

[00:00:00] Soldier's Lament - Sonya Kitchell

[00:00:16] He fight and he pray he love and he bleed

[00:00:20] To no satisfaction was note as need

[00:00:24] And when he walks stands tall as he can

[00:00:29] For he's a man yeah he's a man

[00:00:32] And when he crumbles resolve to the ground

[00:00:37] Like burnt bits of paper life flutters round

[00:00:41] All eyes turn away no one wants to see

[00:00:45] A man who has lost in the fight to be free

[00:00:49] For we've been out runnin' for all of our lives

[00:00:59] No chance and stop and we'd surely lose sight

[00:01:14] In the back of his mind is a smiling face

[00:01:18] The one who said "You know it's no race"

[00:01:22] The one who said "You got time to breathe"

[00:01:26] 'Cause child you're born we're all born free

[00:01:30] In the back of his mind is the back of a room

[00:01:35] So dust enshrouded and no dust broom

[00:01:39] Stands a chance to clear the cobwebs away

[00:01:43] So live in the back in the dark it'll stay

[00:01:49] And we've been out runnin' for all of our lives

[00:02:00] No chance and stop and we'd surely lose sight

[00:02:16] Tell me son what are you livin' for

[00:02:20] Tell me boy what are you livin' for

[00:02:24] Tell me son what are you livin' for

[00:02:28] Tell me tell me what are you livin' for
