A Soldier's Heart Lyrics - R. Kelly

All hope was gone 

Hard to hang on 

Hard to be strong 

Was blind, could not see 

Nothing but walls in front of me 

And inside no peace 

And the mountains seemed impossible to climb 

Until you stood on the front line 

You led the way 

Out of the darkness 

We didn't go astray 

You were ready to die for our sake 

And that, that takes a soldier's heart

Watch Janelle Monáe's Sci-Fi film 'Dirty Computer' 

Oceans so deep 

Uphill, so steep 

But still we believe 

And when the road was too far to travel 

Heroes, you cared, you came and carried us there 

And the mountains seemed impossible to climb 

Until you stood on the front line 

You led the way 

Out of the darkness 

We didn't go astray 

You were ready to die for our sake 

And that takes a soldier's heart 

And so our flag was still there 

All because you decided to care 

Our burden to bear 

Photos 

You stood on the front line 

You led the way 

Right out of the darkness 

Didn't go astray 

You were ready to die for our sake 

And that takes 

You stood on the front line 

You led the way 

Right out of the darkness, hey 

You could have let us go astray 

You were ready to die for our sake 

And that takes a soldier's heart 

Whoa, that takes a soldier's heart, hey 

It takes a soldier's heart
