Maybe I won't make much of a difference And all I do won't make a hill of beans I can't bestow riches on my children Unless I can show what love and kindness mean If you believe what's right is right Then you will always have to fight I guess I am a soldier after all I guess I am a soldier after all So I go to work every morning Knowing I will never have it made Some months I go paycheck to pawnshop I wish I could say at least then the bills are paid It takes care to keep what you hold precious There isn't much of which you can be sure And if you want some changes for the better Then you will have to fight even more 'Cause it's a world Where you're still judged by your cover The money you don't make, your skin, your lover Your lover So maybe I won't make much of a difference But that doesn't mean that I'm not gonna try Cause every day you love someone is better And I'm not gonna let that chance pass me by No I'm not gonna let that chance pass me by If you believe what's right Then you will always have to fight I guess I am a soldier after all I guess I am a soldier after all
