The New American Soldier
From the White House to your doorstep, under orders in the dark. He’s a sword for autocracy, and he’s ready to leave a mark
🎵 [Verse 1]
He used to guard the borders, far from home and sight
Now he’s walking through the city in the middle of the night
Wearing stars and stripes like armor, but his orders ain’t the same
He’s not fighting foreign tyrants — now he answers to a name
🎵 [Chorus]
He’s the new American soldier, a blade drawn from within
No oath to the people, just power and the win
From the White House to your doorstep, under orders in the dark
He’s a sword for autocracy, and he’s ready to leave a mark
🎵 [Verse 2]
They called it “homeland safety,” they dressed it up in pride
But mothers hold their children close when he starts to occupy
No siren, no confession, just the silence of the law
When democracy gets strangled in a soldier’s martial jaw
🎵 [Chorus]
He’s the new American soldier, with a mission turned around
Not to fight for freedom — but to keep the voices down
He’s the armored hand of power, he’s the shadow on the street
He’s a weapon without conscience, marching on repeat
🎵 [Bridge]
This ain't what the founders wrote
This ain’t what the people vote
This is boots on broken trust
Turning honor into dust
🎵 [Verse 3]
The generals read the memo, the governors lost the fight
The Guard belongs to Washington, and justice lost the right
And when you raise your banner, or you kneel upon the floor
He’s the knock you never wanted — he’s the steel behind the door
🎵 [Final Chorus]
He’s the new American soldier, forged in fear and lies
Sent to guard a strongman’s dream beneath these fading skies
He’s not here to serve the people, he’s not here to set you free
He’s a sword for autocracy — and he’s pointing it at me
