Citizen Soldier - "Soldier"

Музыка

On January 27th 2017, 8 year old Gabriel Taye hung himself after enduring weeks of relentless bullying at his school. Bullies are cowards that crave attention and social validation. No matter how weak you may feel, if you stand up to them, you take their power away.
Our new single "Soldier," is an anthem for anyone who is has been bullied or is dealing with an abusive relationship. We always perform this song, with specific people in mind, so we hope you'll dedicate this to your favorite coward and raise your middle fingers with us

Lyrics:
Just another day on the front line
forced to apologize
for being who I am but you better understand
I'm taking back all this wasted time
feeling like a landmine
You know I like it rough
I'm feeling dangerous
I've been hit flip the switch
I'm done swallowing your cyanide
Somethings snapped so watch your step
Now I'm ready to ignite
Maybe I'm a misfit maybe I'm a no one
push me to the dirt ya the one you always spit on
I am not worthless
I don't deserve this
No I will not take this
Wont be faceless now is the time to say it
You better bite your tongue
I'm about to come undone
Now my moment is here I'm not the only one
Singing maybe I'll fight maybe when I'm older
But if I face you now maybe I'm a soldier
Insecurity personified bully born to run and hide
You take your sticks and stones cut me down to the bone
You better run, run save yourself
swear I'll be a living hell
My scarlet letters see, I wear it on my sleeve
Lunatic I'm so sick of your self righteous hypocrisy
I wont run
I wont hide
I wont be a casualty
Maybe I'm a misfit maybe I'm a no one
push me to the dirt ya the one you always spit on
I am not worthless
I don't deserve this
No I will not take this
Wont be faceless now is the time to say it
You better bite your tongue
I'm about to come undone
Now my moment is here I'm not the only one
Singing maybe I'll fight maybe when I'm older
But if I face you now maybe I'm a soldier
Now I'm breaking my silence
I wont sit here and take this
I'd rather be dead
Than surrender and live like a tragedy
I wont be your tragedy
Maybe I'm a misfit maybe I'm a no one
push me to the dirt ya the one you always spit on
I am not worthless
I don't deserve this
No I will not take this
Wont be faceless now is the time to say it
You better bite your tongue
I'm about to come undone
Now my moment is here I'm not the only one
Singing maybe I'll fight maybe when I'm older
But if I face you now maybe I'm a soldier
I am an army of one
I am an army of one
I am an army of one
I am an army of one...

    I needed this song while I was going through school. I have ADHD and a small inability to pull myself out of fantasy (don't worry, I can disconcern a video game from real life). These two things made me real easy to bully. It wasn't until my grandfather died back in middle school that I finally snapped a threatened the lives of the ones picking on me. After an officer showed up and found out that not only was I safe but found out it was a result of both bullying and not speaking out did I finally get help. I don't want to think about what I might have been if it wasn't for that officer.

    This song speaks volumes to me. I was bullied relentlessly in school, and struggled with mental health issues and, on occasion, suicidal thoughts as a result. Everything changed for me in high school. I had enough, and started doing MMA. I wanted it to be an unknown fact, but somehow, word got out, and the people that once bullied me started respecting me. Perhaps they'd figured out that I was, metaphorically speaking, a ticking time bomb waiting to explode on them and teach them a lesson. To this very day, those same kids still respect me, and even possibly fear me.

Honestly I wish people wouldn't bully others they honestly don't know what's going on inside their head even the people who always smile and seem happy might be the ones hurting the most you never know! When I talk to someone I always show compassion no matter who it is you never know even a smile can make someone's day! Honestly this song is very powerful I believe it can help many people!

    I know this is a old video but I'm re listening to this entire EP. Recently a professor asked me in front of the entire class if I even graduated high school after she found out I have autism . I already struggle to push forward cause of my autism and the field I am studying to go into ( medical) , I think there's a reason I randomly decided to re listen . I needed to hear this song tonight as I finish up 12 pages of biology work .

    I hope you succeeded, I also have autism but I also have Tourette’s and ADHD, they make it hard for me to find a job let alone leave my home town without supervision, reading, warhammer and video games help me pass the time when I don’t have anything else to do, hobbys keep me sane if I didn’t have them I’d loose my mind from boredom, I also had issue with a bully when I was younger, so if this song existed when I was in high school it might have meant more than it does now, hope you become a great doctor, but I really hope your gender critical

    I love this song so much. You guys constantly throw out new bangers. I was introduced to you guys through "Devil Inside Me" and I've recently been listening to you guys on repeat on Spotify. Life's been a living hell recently but I'm glad I have your guys music because it helps to know I'm not the only one out here struggling, then songs like this appear and I feel empowered again to continue this fight. Keep making great songs guys. People like me really need people like you to show we aren't alone. ❤
