Soldier [Turkish translation]

Hey (I want a soldier!)

The way you got it, I'm the hottest around

They'll know it when they see you rollin' Impala's around

(I got a soldier!)

With the top down feeling the sounds

Quakin' and vibratin' your thighs ridin' harder than guys

With the chrome wheels at the bottom, white leather inside

When them flames be spittin' at you tell 'em don't even try it

To shot it with 'Chelle and kick it with Kelly or holla at B

Ya, gotta be Gs you way outta your league

Please!

We like them boys that be in them lac's leanin' (leanin')

Open their mouth their grill gleamin' (gleamin')

Eyes be so low from that chief and (chief and)

A rude boy that's good to me, with street credibility

If your status ain't hood

I ain't checkin' for him

Better be street if he lookin' at me

That ain't scared to stand up for me

Known to carry big things

If you know what I mean

If your status ain't hood

I ain't checkin' for him

Better be street if he looking at me

I need a soldier

That ain't scared to stand up for me

Gotta know to get dough

And he better be street

We like them boys up top from the BK (BK)

Know how to flip that money three ways (three ways)

Always ridin' big on the freeway (freeway)

So quick to snatch up your Beyonce (Beyonce)

Always coming down popping our way (our way)
