Big salute to the men and women who put their life on the line everyday fightin' for our country These stories ain't about them This is about the soldiers that left AWOL niggas, dealers and killers Smokers and loners Niggas that seen too much and became opposers Let's get into this Look, I know a cat that joined the military at an early age I've seen him once and a while when he'd come around the way I would see that picture where he posin' camouflage and paint Shit, I knew him hella young, I heard he had them straight A's But he didn't respect his momma much So Oakland is where they sent him up And he always stayed out of touch He only called home when he need a buck Got locked up, caught selling drugs Life changed a nigga, went from sharp to a fuckin' thug Fresh off the grid, back in the hustle mode No time to muffle though, that ain't the hustler's code And it's hard to trust him with dough My other homie said he stole a studio right up out of his home Military trained with a military brain Hard to process, switchin' and changin' lanes I know some killers out the military I know some dealers out the military See, you can be all you wanna be See, you can be all you wanna be See, you can be a (what?) drug dealer (what?) Thug nigga (what?) born killer (what?) See, you can be all you wanna be See, you can be all you wanna be See, you can be I got a gang of brothers that was in the military that was just honorably discharged Really wasn't cut like Rambo when the shit starts I don't blame 'em, I would've been right there smokin' weed too Fuck flyin' up and skydivin' out a B2 I know some homies that got PTSD And now they havin' flashbacks It's stories of hazmats, and being ransacked And now they on packs of the Xanax To hold back the thoughts of all the bad acts Nigga used to be a dork, now he a Mad Max Quick to snap a nigga's cap back and show his flag tats Yeah, a cop's nightmare, that is a rogue soldier That seen too much and was told to roll over Now he can't be sober, he got a cold shoulder To the same country he feel home to Old Oaker He used to drive the tanks and control rovers Now he rather be a loner while he's growin' older I know some killers out the military I know some dealers out the military See, you can be all you wanna be See, you can be all you wanna be See, you can be a (what?) drug dealer (what?) Thug nigga (what?) born killer (what?) See, you can be all you wanna be See, you can be all you wanna be See, you can be All you can be, dawg, even the president Popular demand don't matter when they riggin' the messages Look at all the messes and opiods and the recklessness The terrorists, and what all this represents is common negligence How embarrassing Can't even kneel like Colin Kaepernick in America The land of the free, the land of the foul The land of the "all we want is power right now" Give it up Everybody drinkin'... how come the front row ain't have no drinks, what the hell happened here? Gotta get the front row some drinks, white people ain't feelin' it If they were black people with no drinks they'd be raising hell right now See, white people are just so patient Black people: That motherfucker! I've been here a half hour, my shit ain't here yet Everybody drinkin' having a good time?
