I Got Soul

by: Mclean

When there's nowhere else to run
Is there room for one more son
One more son
If you just hold on
If you just hold on, hold on
I got soul but I'm not a soldier
I got soul but I'm not a soldier
I got soul but I'm not a soldier
I got soul but I'm not a soldier
Look, for peace in the world im a big supporter
all these kids in the world wanna drink his water
but the conflict destroys the bricks and waters
see pain in there eyes, i can feel the torture
When there's nowhere else to run
Is there room for one more son
One more son
If you just hold on
If you just hold on, hold on
I got soul but I'm not a soldier
I got soul but I'm not a soldier
I got soul but I'm not a soldier
I got soul but I'm not a soldier
Listen, you got no love cos you never recieved it
and thats cos you never did teach it
preach this, let the kids go
cos love is a motion trapped in the soul
When you think your battles are won
then you find its left undone, left undone
If you can hold on
If you can hold on, hold on
I got soul but I'm not a soldier
I got soul but I'm not a soldier
I got soul but I'm not a soldier
I got soul but I'm not a soldier
yeh, see me in the type that will die for a cause
but no kids should die for a war
lets fight for a cause
pray for better days
when the going get tough there's a better way
face, you know if having better days
no more pain, my lifes got a better page
and no kid should die for water
i can find in there eyes that the law
I got soul but I'm not a soldier
I got soul but I'm not a soldier
I got soul but I'm not a soldier
I got soul but I'm not a soldier
yeah, let them breathe in air no choker
i got soul, so my heart stays open
stop the war so when the kids aint copin'
i see light, look over the ocean
Yeah-eh-eh you know you got to help me out
yeah-eh-eh oh don't you put me on the backburner-er-er
you know you got to help me out
yeah-eh-eh you're gonna bring yourself down
Hold on and then last call for a sin
where everyone's loves a battle is done
With all these things that i have done
I got soul but I'm not a soldier
I got soul but I'm not a soldier
I got soul but I'm not a soldier
