Benjamin De La Rosa talks about this single, ” “Soldier” Remix is a remix of a song I made a couple years ago, switched the beat, tempo , and mix up a bit. Same lyrics, same message. Talks about issues facing the world, staying grounded in the Word, being a good soldier for Christ. Based on 2 Timothy 2:3, We should endure suffering as a Good soldier of Jesus Christ. “Soldier” Remix is a bold reminder not to compromise His Word. A good soldier listens to instructions and carries out his orders.”
Produced by Tone Jonez
Lyrics:
(Chorus)
“I’m a soldier, swangin and I’m tippin in the rover,
beatin down the block, I’m rockin with Jehovah,
Jesus Christ, I’ll represent him till it’s over,
In the grave with him so I rose again like a super nova,”
(Verse 1)
“So uhhh, tell me what’s it gonna take,
to make us turn away from our wicked ways,
leave the past in the past, we all make mistakes,
For Heaven sake, no for our sake,
He came down died, took our place,
Now our place is to die for him daily, scareface,
You talking to me?, (I’m) talking to you,
walk with the King, King of the Jews,
They talking to me, yall dont get confused,
They squak then you see birds flip on the news,
They rap about it and glorify it, then get mad at me as I speak the truth.
These kids are dying, it’s horrifying, the poor are crying, they’re hooked on booze,
Too many views stay distorted, too many babies aborted,
it’s court ordered that’s horrid, it’s the new norm,
life ain’t important it’s disorderly,apparently it’s plain to see
but nobody has nominated anyone to take the lead,
let’s do something about it, these puppet masters lead these sheeple in so casually,
I’m not going down without a fight bro, come at me, come and see,
the way I live, it’s not for me, it’s for the King,”
(Chorus)
(Verse 2)
“So what’s in ya soda, what ya sippin on my roller?
you puffin dosa, sippin syrup?
the Holy Ghost about to stir up…
The new wine in my cup, you hold it down, we hold it up,
We hold it high just to confront, all of the lies they love to bluff,
it’s just too obvious, votes were stuffed, it’s hard to miss,
Hypocrisy is at an all time high, pigs fly into the mist,
bout to blast em’ out the sky, you down to ride? Do or die.
Into the night, duck and dodge, hop out on these crews, enlighten em,
fight or flight thru the plight, delight in Christ, He’s the light,
The way, the truth, and the life, He always loved us despite,
the way we treated him on earth, gave new birth,
dispearsed the Holy Spirit, lifted the curse,
we started out as plain dirt.
Let the hatred commence, I stay blessed to the hearst,
till the day that I’m dead, die and then re-amerge.
Speak the Gospel to the people, Feel so free as a bird.
He’s the only way to Heaven, I don’t care what ya heard,
They live life how they want, I live mine by his Word,
Anything other than that is clearly silly abseard,
They live life how they want, I live mine by his word,
anything other than that is abseard, cuz…”
(Chorus)
