I'm just a person I don't claim no country I just don't need a flag To say who I am Well, I come from my momma Like you and your brother This world is ours It's all in your hands I'm just a soldier Fighting the sorrow Holding my head up high Won't beg steal or borrow Oh and if not today If not today, if not today Maybe tomorrow … You know I'm only human So I'll make my excuses But there's one thing I know One thing I can see It might be too late To change where we're goin' But in your own mind You can always be free Yeah I'm just a soldier Fighting that sorrow Holding my head up high Won't beg steal or borrow Oh and if not today If not today, if not today Then maybe tomorrow Maybe tomorrow Yeah yeah
