Revenge of a Soulja Lyrics

[Intro]
Pray; Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Your's kingdom and the power and the glory, forever

[Refrain]
A soldier, a soldier (Guess who's back?)
Everywhere I see, a soldier like me (Guess who's back?)
Everywhere I see, a soldier, a soldier (Guess who's back?)
Everywhere I see, a soldier like me (Guess who's back?)
Everywhere I see, a soldier, a soldier (Guess who's back?)
Everywhere I see, a soldier, a soldier (Guess who's back?)
Everywhere I see, a soldier, a soldier (Guess who's back?)
Everywhere I see, a soldier like me (Guess who's back?)

[Verse]
Posse deep as I roll through the streets
Motherfuck the police as we creep in our Jeeps (Yeah)
Layin' so low you'd think I'm asleep, but at the slightest beef
I'm robbin' niggas through they teeth (Give it up)
And OPD can get the dick if they play toughy
Last time them niggas rushed me
I ain't bust, but now I'm touchy, trust me
Ain't nothin' jumpin' but these buckshots
A nigga's got enough knocks, I'm poppin' at corrupt cops
Them motherfuckers catch a hot one
You wanted to start a problem?
Now you coward cops have got one
And there's no prison that can hold a
Motherfuckin' soldier, ready to roll and take control
So now I jack 'em while they sleepin'
Roll to the door, throw a grenade in the precinct
Some people panic, brothers bugged out
I had to keep poppin' ‘cause there's no stoppin' till they rubbed out
And they vest don't protect from the head wounds
Reload ammunitions and them bitches will be dead soon (See ya)
Smoke risin' from the barrel of my shotty
I finally got revenge, now count the bodies
Twenty cops, one for every year in jail
Tryna keep a nigga down, but ya failed
Before I let you take me, I told ya
Fuck bein' trapped, I'm a soldier, uh
[Refrain]
Everywhere you see, a soldier, a soldier
Everywhere you see, a soldier like me (Guess who's back?)
Everywhere you see, a soldier, a soldier
Everywhere you see, a soldier like me (Guess who's back?)
Everywhere you see, a soldier, a soldier (Guess who's back?)
Everywhere you see, a soldier, a soldier (Guess who's back?)
Everywhere you see, a soldier, a soldier (Guess who's back?)
Everywhere you see, a soldier like me (Guess who's back?)
Everywhere you see, a soldier, a soldier (Guess who's back?)
Everywhere you see, a soldier like me (Guess who's back?)
Everywhere you see, a soldier, a soldier (Guess who's back?)
Everywhere you see, a soldier like me (Guess who's back?)
Everywhere you see, a soldier, a soldier (Guess who's back?)
Everywhere you see, a soldier, a soldier (Guess who's back?)
Everywhere you see, a soldier, a soldier (Guess who's back?)
Everywhere you see, a soldier like me (Guess who's back?)

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

“Revenge of a Soulja” (not to be confused with “Soulja’s Revenge”) is a track originally recorded for 2Pac’s album Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z.. It follows 2Pac’s character Soulja (who is portrayed with a pitched-down voice) as he shoots up and bombs the Oakland Police Department building.

Pac’s Soulja character previously appeared on the previously mentioned “Soulja’s Revenge” and “Soulja’s Story”. All three tracks have a distinct theme of black liberation and retaliation from police brutality.

“Revenge Of A Soulja” remained unreleased to the public until 2004, when it was remixed into the track “Soldier Like Me” featuring Eminem on the posthumous release Loyal To The Game.
