Текст песни с аккордами

    	    	[Вступление]:
C#m               C#7sus4
  I`m bored let`s do something else
C#m7             C#sus2                A    G#m C#m C#m ***
  I got this book...one day i give it to you

  E            B
Step by step, heart to heart
 C#m                  Emaj7     A    ***
Left, right, left, we all fall down...

[Припев]:
  E            B
Step by step, heart to heart
 C#m                  Emaj7     A
Left, right, left, we all fall down
B           C#m      B
  Like toy soldiers


 E           B
Bit by bit, torn apart
    C#m                Emaj7  A
We never win, but the battle wages on
B          C#m
  For toy soldiers

[Куплет 1]:
        C#m                         C#7sus4
I'm supposed to be the soldier who never blows his composure
       C#m7                            C#sus2
Even though I hold the weight of the whole world on my shoulders
         A
I ain't never supposed to show it
        G#m
My crew ain't supposed to know it
     C#m
Even if it means goin' toe-to-toe with a Benzino

             C#m                      C#7sus4
It don't matter, I never drag 'em in battles that I can't handle
        C#m7                        C#sus2
'Less I absolutely have to, I'm supposed to set an example
   A                              G#m
I need to be the leader, my crew looks for me to guide 'em
    C#m
If some shit ever does pop off, I'm supposed to be beside 'em

      C#m                               C#7sus4
That Ja shit, I tried to squash it, it was too late to stop it
  C#m7                           C#sus2
There's a certain line you just don't cross, and he crossed it
   A                                G#m
I heard him say Hailie's name on a song and I just lost it
         C#m
It was crazy, the shit went way beyond some JAY-Z and Nas shit

    C#m                         C#7sus4
And even though the battle was won, I feel like we lost it
    C#m7                       C#sus2
I spent so much energy on it, honestly I'm exhausted
    A                                  G#m
And I'm so caught in it, I almost feel I'm the one who caused it
     C#m
This ain't what I'm in hip-hop for, it's not why I got in it

    C#m                      C#7sus4
That was never my object, for someone to get killed
  C#m7                     C#sus2
Why would I wanna destroy somethin' I helped build?
    A                          G#m
It wasn't my intentions, my intentions were good
    C#m
I went through my whole career without ever mentionin' ****

      C#m                             C#7sus4
And that was just outta respect, for not runnin' my mouth
     C#m7                        C#sus2
And talkin' about somethin' that I knew nothin' about
       A                         G#m
Plus Dre told me stay out, this just wasn't my beef
      C#m
So I did, I just fell back, watched and gritted my teeth

           C#m           C#7sus4
While he's all over TV, down-talkin' the man
     C#m7                          C#sus2
Who literally saved my life, like fuck it, I understand
         A                            G#m
This is business, and this shit just isn't none of my business
      C#m
But still knowin' the shit could pop off at any minute, 'cause

[Припев]:
  E            B
Step by step, heart to heart
 C#m                  Emaj7     A
Left, right, left, we all fall down
B           C#m      B
  Like toy soldiers


 E           B
Bit by bit, torn apart
    C#m                Emaj7  A
We never win, but the battle wages on
B          C#m
  For toy soldiers

[Куплет 2]:
      C#m                     C#7sus4
There used to be a time when you could just say a rhyme and
          C#m7               C#sus2
Wouldn't have to worry about one of your people dyin'
     A                        G#m
But now it's elevated, 'cause once you put someone's kids in it
      C#m
The shit gets escalated—it ain't just words no more, is it?

        C#m                          C#7sus4
It's a different ballgame, you call names and you ain't just rappin'
   C#m7                             C#sus2
We actually tried to stop the 50 and Ja beef from happenin'
 A                           G#m
Me and Dre had sat with him, kicked it and had a chat with him
    C#m
And asked him not to start it, he wasn't gonna go after him

       C#m                   C#7sus4
Until Ja started yappin' in magazines how he stabbed him
 C#m7                    C#sus2
Fuck it, 50, smash him! Mash on him, let him have it
      A                            G#m
Meanwhile my attention's pulled in another direction
        C#m
Some receptionist at The Source who answers phones at his desk

         C#m                                 C#7sus4
Has an erection for me and thinks that I'll be his resurrection
  C#m7                          C#sus2
Tries to blow the dust off his mic and make a new record
     A                                 G#m
But now he's fucked the game up 'cause one of the ways I came up
       C#m
Was through that publication, the same one that made me famous

        C#m                     C#7sus4
Now the owner of it has got a grudge against me for nothin'?
       C#m7                             C#sus2
Well, fuck it, that motherfucker could get it too, fuck him then!
    A                        G#m
But I'm so busy bein' pissed off, I don't stop to think
                C#m
That we've just inherited 50's beef with Murder Inc.

        C#m                        C#7sus4                       C#m7
And he's inherited mine, which is fine, ain't like either of us mind
                              C#sus2
We still have soldiers that's on the front line
  A                             G#m
Who's willin' to die for us as soon as we give the orders
 C#m
Never to extort us, strictly to show they support us

     C#m                      C#7sus4
And maybe shout 'em out in a rap or up in a chorus
     C#m7                         C#sus2
To show 'em we love 'em back and let 'em know how important
   A                         G#m
It is to have Runyon Avenue soldiers up in our corners
       C#m
Their loyalty to us is worth more than any award is

    C#m                            C#7sus4
But I ain't tryna have none of my people hurt or murdered
          C#m7                         C#sus2
It ain't worth it, I can't think of a perfecter way to word it
         A                              G#m
Than to just say that I love y'all too much to see the verdict
      C#m
I'll walk away from it all 'fore I let it go any further

 C#m                            C#7sus4
But don't get it twisted, it's not a plea that I'm coppin'
          C#m7                     C#sus2
I'm just willin' to be the bigger man, if y'all can quit poppin'
          A                                 G#m
Off at the jaws, well, then I can, 'cause frankly I'm sick of talkin'
     C#m
I'm not gonna let someone else's coffin rest on my conscience `cause

[Припев]:
  E            B
Step by step, heart to heart
 C#m                  Emaj7     A
Left, right, left, we all fall down
B           C#m      B
  Like toy soldiers


 E           B
Bit by bit, torn apart
    C#m                Emaj7  A
We never win, but the battle wages on
B          C#m
  For toy soldiers
