歌曲名 Like Toy Soldiers(Clean)

歌手名 Eminem

Step by step heart to heart left right left

We all fall down

Step by step heart to heart left right left

We all fall down like toy soldiers

Bit by bit torn apart we never win

But the battle wages on for toy soldiers

Im supposed to be the soldier who never blows his posure

Even though I hold the weight of the whole world on my shoulders

I am never supposed to show it my crew aint supposed to know it

Even if it means goin toe to toe with a Benzino it dont matter

Id never drag them in battles

That I can handle unless I absolutely have to

Im supposed to set an example

I need to be the leader my crew looks for me to guide em

If some ever just pop off Im supposed to be beside em

Now Ja said I tried to squash it it was too late to stop it

Theres a certain line you just dont cross and he crossed it

I heard him say Hailies name on a song and I just lost it

It was crazy this be way beyond some Jay-z and Nas

And even though the battle was won I feel like we lost it

I spent too much energy on it honestly Im exhausted

And Im so caught in it I almost feel Im the one who caused it

This aint what Im in hip-hop for its not why I got in it

That was never my object for someone to get killed

Why would I wanna destroy something I help build

It wasnt my intentions my intentions was good

I went through my whole career without ever mentionin ( )

Plus Dre told me stay out this just wasnt my beef

So I did I just fell back watched and gritted my teeth

While hes all over t v down talkin a man who literally saved my life

Like it i understand this is business

And this just isnt none of my business

But still knowin this could pop off at any minute cuz

Step by step heart to heart left right left

We all fall down like toy soldiers

Bit by bit torn apart we never win

But the battle wages on for toy soldiers

There used to be a time when you could just say a rhyme

And wouldnt have to worry about one of your people dyin

But now its elevated cuz once you put someones kids in it

The gets escalated it aint just words no more is it

Its a different ball game callin names and you aint just rappin

We actually tried to stop the 50 and Ja beef from happenin

Me and Dre had sat with him kicked it and had a chat with him

And asked him not to start it he wasnt gonna go after him

Until Ja started yappin in magazines how we stabbed him

it 50 smash em mash em and let him have it

Meanwhile my attention is pullin in other directions

Some receptionist at The Source who answers phones at his desk

Has an erection for me and thinks that Ill be his ressurection

Tries to blow the dust off his mic and make a new record

But now hes ed the game up cuz one of the ways I came up

Was through that publication the same one that made me famous

Now the owner of it has got a grudge against me for nothin

Well it that mutherer can get it too him then

But Im so busy being pissed off I dont stop to think

That we just inherited 50s beef with Murder Inc

And hes inherited mine which is fine aint like either of us mind

We still have soldiers thats on the front line

Thats willing to die for us as soon as we give the orders

Never to extort us strictly to show they support us

Well maybe shout em out in a rap or up in a chorus

To show them we love em back and let em know how important it is

To have run ya nav and who sulked us up in our corners

Their loyalty to us is worth more than any award is

But I aint tryna have none of my people hurt and murdered

There aint words that I cant think of a perfecter way to word it

Then to just say that I love yall too much to see the virdict

Ill walk away from it all before I let it go any further

But dont get it twisted its not a plea that Im coppin

Im just willin to be the bigger man

If yall can quit poppin off at your jaws with the knockin

Cuz frankly Im sick of talkin

Im not gonna let someone elses coffin rest on my conscience cuz

Step by step heart to heart left right left

We all fall down like toy soldiers

Bit by bit torn apart we never win

But the battle wages on for toy soldiers
