    And 
    you don't 
    hear none 
    of 
    those 
    stations, 

    for hip- 
    hop 
    and R and B 
    playin' 
    him 

    Ask 
    why, 
    in fact, 

    where 
    are those 
    stations 
    today? 

    Somebody 
    better ask 
    somebody 
    that 

    The people 
    that's 
    most 
    affected, 

    by 
    this 
    war 

    are the 
    so- 
    called hip- 

    Verse 2
    hop 
    generation 


    The Army 
    is the best 
    kept 

    secret 
    in 
    the whole world 

    That 
    every 
    sol
    dier 
    gets 
    his 
    or her 

    own 
    private 
    room 

    You can forget 
    that 
    old brown 

    boot 
    image 
    of 
    the Army 

    It's 
    a job 
    like 
    anything 
    else, 

    you'd 
    love it, 
    all 
    the soldiers 
    do 

    Verse 3
    I remem
    ber 
    how it 
    started, 

    remember 
    the time 

    I was 
    watchin' 
    Rap 
    City 
    'bout 

    a quarter 
    to nine 

    Commercial 
    said the 
    military 

    givin' 
    money 
    for school 

    Caught 
    the 
    bus 
    up to 
    my campus, 

    they were 
    signin' 
    recruits 

    And met this 
    dude 
    named Diablo, 

    was some 
    kind 
    of vet 

    He 
    explained 
    the situation 
    told me 

    what to 
    expect, 
    he 
    said 

    Now 
    we'll help 
    you pay for 

    college 
    and train 
    you for 
    work 

    Said 
    I could 
    take computer 
    classes 

    and could 
    quit 
    if I want 

    But 
    best 
    of all 
    was the 
    fact 
    I'd, 

    have my 
    own 
    shit 

    I'd 
    have my 
    own 
    space 
    and have my 

    own 
    place 
    to keep 
    it 

    On top 
    of that I'd 
    travel, 

    and visit 
    the world 

    Hell Di
    ablo 
    said 
    the women 

    overseas 
    was the pearl 

    Didn't 
    even 
    call my 
    girl, 

    let's 
    get 
    it on 
    fo' sho' 

    Signed my 
    name, 
    took some 
    tests, 

    and I was 
    outta 
    the do' 

    A true 
    soldier 
    for 
    America, 
    ready 
    to go 

    On the 
    road 
    vacation'll be 

    Verse 4
    good 
    for the soul 

    [Chorus] 

    Don't matter 
    what 
    they 
    sayin' 
    now 

    They 
    lyin' 
    what they 
    say 
    fo' sho' 

    They 
    don't 
    play 
    when it 
    come 
    to war 

    They 
    get down, 
    they get 
    down, 

    they 
    get down 

    Verse 5
    I showed 
    up at 
    basic 
    training, 

    but what 
    mistake 

    'Cause 
    this 
    motherfucker 

    yellin' 
    at 
    me 
    all 
    in 
    my face 

    In 
    this 
    dirty- 
    ass 
    latrine, 

    fifty 
    men 
    in 
    a room 

    Runnin' 
    laps 
    up 
    in 
    the 
    mud 
    at 
    four 

    o'clock 
    in 
    the morning 

    I'm scrub
    bin' 
    toilets 
    doin' 
    laundry, 

    and 
    feelin' 
    the 
    pain 

    If 
    didn't 
    know no 
    better, 

    I'd think 
    'boy' was 
    my 
    name 

    Same 
    bullshit 
    line 
    so 
    many 
    bit 
    'fore 
    me 

    Got 
    nigga 
    twisted 
    up 
    in 
    this 

    illusion 
    of freedom 

    Fuck 
    this 
    shit, 
    I'm 
    out 
    tomorrow, 

    made 
    up my 
    mind 

    Everything 
    Diablo 
    said 
    I'm 

    findin' 
    out 
    was 
    lie 

    That's 
    when 
    my 
    unit 
    got 
    the 
    call, 

    the 
    Commander 
    in 
    Chief 

    Want 
    to ground 
    troop 
    assignments 

    keepin' 
    peace 
    in the 
    East 

    What 
    relief, 

    I'm 
    thinkin' 
    finally 
    somethin' 
    new 

    Shipped 
    us off 
    and 
    twenty 
    hours 

    later 
    we 
    was 
    en 
    route 

    Touched 
    down 
    around 
    eleven, 

    the desert 
    was 
    brutal 

    Then 
    the ground 
    split 
    and 
    caught 
    us 
    by 
    surprise 
    from 
    the 

    Interlude 1
    shootin' 





    Verse 6
    [Chorus: x2] 
    It was 

    all 
    surreal, 

    seen 
    'em 
    blow 
    the spine 
    out 
    his 
    back 

    In 
    the minefield, 

    we 
    was 
    reelin' 
    from 
    the 
    attack 

    Seen 
    the 
    M- 
    O's 
    hand 
    upon 
    the receiver, 

    still 
    attached 

    With 
    an 
    alarm 
    on 
    it, set 
    off 
    the beacon, 

    then 
    I mashed 

    Who 
    the first 
    truck, 

    blood 
    and 
    guts 
    splash 
    in my 
    face 

    Cuttin' 
    kids 
    down, 

    couldn't 
    been 
    no 
    older 
    than 
    eight 

    What 
    the fuck 
    is 
    goin' 
    on, 

    who 
    we fightin' 
    and why? 

    Killin' 
    kids, 
    killin' 
    killers, 

    who 
    the fuck 
    is 
    supply
    in' 

    I'm cryin' 
    out 
    for 
    protection, 

    but 
    none 
    of 
    it came 

    So 
    dumped 
    in 
    all 
    directions 
    'til 

    the 
    heater 
    was 
    drained 

    But 
    that 
    night 
    vision 
    shit, 

    wasn't 
    helpin 
    us 
    win 

    Caught 
    a round 
    of friendly 
    fire 
    but 

    it wasn't 
    so 
    friendly 

    We simply 
    got 
    lucky, 

    headed 
    back 
    to 
    the base 

    Seen 
    soldier 
    rape 
    woman, 

    shot 
    her 
    dead 
    in the face 

    Guts 
    stuck 
    to 
    my clothes, 
    body 
    parts 
    galore 

    If 
    this 
    peacekeeping mission 

    ain't 
    ready 
    for 
    war 

    And 
    now I'm 
    back 
    home 
    bitter, 

    and 
    sick 
    and 
    contagious 

    And 
    I'm 
    knowin' 
    we 
    some 
    bullies, 

    that's 
    why 
    everyone 
    hate 
    us 

    Still 
    broke 
    than 
    a motherfucker, 

    niggaz is starvin' 

    And 
    that 
    job 
    trainin' 
    shit 

    is 
    only 
    good 
    for 
    the 
    Army 

    guess 
    I should 
    a been 
    a C- 
    O, 

    and 
    kept 
    up 
    file 

    Should 
    listened 
    when 
    my homies 

    said 
    we murder 
    for 
    oil 

    Now 
    I'm 
    fuckin' 
    with 
    this 
    wheelchair, 

    ain't 
    nuttin' 
    the same 

    And

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      Rose the Black Cat

      "

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      "

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
