  • 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

    From peace in the world, I'm a big supporter
    All these kids wanna drink his water
    But the conflict destroys the bricks and mortar
    See pain in their eyes I can feel the torcher

    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 on 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 'cause you never received it
    And that's 'cause you never did teach it
    Preach this, lets the kids go
    'Cause love is a potion trapped in a soul

    When you think your battles are won
    Then you find it's left undone, left undone
    If you can't hold on,
    If you can't 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

    See me I'm the type that will die for a cause
    But no kids will die for a war
    Let fight for a cause, pray for a better days
    When going gets tough there's a better way
    Fasze you now you been there when there's a better days
    Normal pain my life's gotta better page
    And no kid should die for a war
    I will fight in the eyes of the lord

    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

    Let them breath in air don't chock them
    I got souls so my heart stays open
    Stop the wars let the kids incorpen
    I seen light look over the ocean

    I'm not a solider

    Yea yea yea yea
    Yeah you now you gotta help me out
    Yeah oh don't you put me on the back burn no
    You now you gotta help me out yeah
    You gonna bring yourself down

    Over and in, let us call for sin
    Where everyone loves the battle is one
    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
    I got soul but I'm not a soldier Writer/s: BRANDON FLOWERS, DAVE BRENT KEUNING, MARK AUGUST STOERMER, RONNIE JR. VANNUCCI
