    Little Soldiers

    I wrote this for my 3 younger brothers

    Title: Little Soldiers

    [Verse 1]

    When I see them lips tremble I fear them tears
    And no matter how it appears I'm right here
    Over the years your ears have heard so much
    So I'm here if you ever need a loving touch
    It's such a shame, our lives have been tough
    But I got no regrets coz I cant love ya'll enough
    There's been so much stuff we try to keep hidden
    But it's clear to see, like happyness is forbidden
    I didnt mean to take my problems out on you
    I'm sorry, it's somethin I should never ever do
    And I've grew up now, wow.....I'm an adult now
    I'll build bridges with you if you show me how
    Coz I couldnt allow you to come to any harm
    I just wanna protect you, take you in my arms

    [Chorus - Sing]
    So little soldiers dont you ever cry
    Yeah it rains but the Sun still shines
    And I know sometimes we hurt inside
    But through it all we're gon' be alright
    Coz for you my arms are open wide
    Come here, big bro's gon' hold you tight

    [Verse 2]
    I dread to think back to all the tears we've shed
    'Lee's my hero', yeah Micheal thats what you said
    We got good times ahead of us, and I aint liein
    Coz never again will I sit up night after night cryin
    I'm dryin my eye's defying the hurt and the pain
    I try to maintain a calmness, it drives me insane
    It's hard to explain coz sometimes I wanna scream
    But ya'll my dream, ya'll just give me self esteem
    It seems no-matter how hard life is, we'll survive
    Coz I've been through it......I took a nose dive
    But ya'll revive me, I'm still alive, I'm on the move
    And it's cool, coz I know that things will improve
    I'm a prove that I can make it and be a provider
    Life is full of surprises, my destiny is the decider

    [Chorus - Sing]
    So little soldiers dont you ever cry
    Yeah it rains but the Sun still shines
    And I know sometimes we hurt inside
    But through it all we're gon' be alright
    Coz for you my arms are open wide
    Come here, big bro's gon' hold you tight

    you need to leave 2 links on here or this will get shut down.
    this was a decent drop, the structure was good the flow was ok.
    but it was the message in the song that shined through 2 me, i like the deeper rhymes so i thought this was good.

    return the favour.

    Really like this man, you said you were working on new shit
    glad to see it was decent, liked your opproach here.
    it was a personal piece, and you made it real emotional
    thought it was an enjoyable read for me, vocab wasnt
    dope, but you used your words well and pulled of a 'real'
    nice piece

    good stuff Lee

    I liked the first verse better, and the chorus was fine, but I think the 2nd verse lacked the same emotion.

    Maybe bcoz your first verse, it showed a style which reminds me of my own...
    It also got deeper in my opinion, great lines and emotion.

    I also liked the idea of Little Soldiers, tho its like Toy Soldiers, it fits well with the piece.

    Maybe we could collab sumtime man, good job

    Hit this up 4 me to

    This was a nice peice...

    Held a lot of emotion, and some nice imagery...

    Could have used some internals and also some multis to aid the flow a little bit... As well as some more vocab...

    Overall nice drop... Be good to hear in audio...

    Peace
