Lyrics:
Last Ma Standing
(Intro)
Yeah… this one’s for the lost, for the fallen…
For the ones who ain’t comin’ home…
But I’m still here… I ain’t leavin’…
Not till my last breath…
(Verse 1)
Desert dust mixed with blood on my boots,
Echoes of gunshots, war don’t mute.
Bodies on the ground, ain’t no prayers left,
Just a soldier with a clip, and a heart full of death.
I see ghosts when I blink, hear voices at night,
Homies in the trenches, still callin’ to fight.
One by one, they fell, now it’s me alone,
Ain’t no backup, ain’t no ride back home.
No retreat, no surrender, it’s kill or be killed,
Got the weight of the war, but I stand here still.
Ain’t no tears in my eyes, just fire and lead,
If I go out tonight, then I paint this town red.
(Chorus)
I’m the last man standin’, holdin’ the line,
Fightin’ for the brothers that I left behind.
Ain’t no retreat, ain’t no white flag flyin’,
They can take my life, but they can’t stop me tryin’.
(Verse 2)
Hands wrapped tight ‘round this steel I clutch,
A hundred against one, but I don’t give a f***.
Bullets kiss the air, death’s breath on my neck,
But I swore on my blood, I ain’t runnin’ back.
Memories flash of the nights we laughed,
Now I’m talkin’ to the dead, loadin’ up my last mag.
One shot, two shots, bodies drop slow,
But my legs gettin’ heavy, man, I already know…
Ain’t no angels comin’, ain’t no trumpets playin’,
Only sound that I hear is the enemy sprayin’.
Clip after clip, ‘til my fingers go numb,
I don’t pray for tomorrow, I just live for the drum.
(Chorus)
I’m the last man standin’, holdin’ the line,
Fightin’ for the brothers that I left behind.
Ain’t no retreat, ain’t no white flag flyin’,
They can take my life, but they can’t stop me tryin’.
(Bridge)
Yeah, tell my momma I fought till the end,
Tell my brothers I ain’t never bend.
Ain’t no grave deep enough to bury my pride,
I die with my fist in the air, not on my side.
Tell ‘em carve my name in the walls of stone,
So the world never forgets who stood here alone.
I ain’t askin’ for mercy, ain’t beggin’ for grace,
I was born for this fight, this is my place.
(Verse 3)
Now my hands shake, breath gettin’ tight,
Blood on my chest, but I still stand and fight.
Ain’t no medics, ain’t no way out clean,
So I light up the dark like a war machine.
Grenade pin pulled, one last stand,
If I go, they comin’ with me, understand?
Ain’t no fear in my bones, just fire in my soul,
If this my last page, then the story been told.
(Outro)
Now the dust settles, my heartbeat slows,
Smoke in the sky, cold wind blows.
One last breath, one last stand,
Then I march with the ghosts to the promised land…
(Bridge)
Yeah, tell my momma I fought till the end,
Tell my brothers I ain’t never bend.
Ain’t no grave deep enough to bury my pride,
I die with my fist in the air, not on my side.
Tell ‘em carve my name in the walls of stone,
So the world never forgets who stood here alone.
I ain’t askin’ for mercy, ain’t beggin’ for grace,
I was born for this fight, this is my place.
(Verse 3)
Now my hands shake, breath gettin’ tight,
Blood on my chest, but I still stand and fight.
Ain’t no medics, ain’t no way out clean,
So I light up the dark like a war machine.
Grenade pin pulled, one last stand,
If I go, they comin’ with me, understand?
Ain’t no fear in my bones, just fire in my soul,
If this my last page, then the story been told.
(Outro)
Now the dust settles, my heartbeat slows,
Smoke in the sky, cold wind blows.
One last breath, one last stand,
Then I march with the ghosts to the promised land…
