"Black Voodoo Sex" lyrics - BODY COUNT

BODY COUNT
"Black Voodoo Sex"

[Intro:]
This song is dedicated to the heroes, the real heroes!
Young men and women that have given their lives
And risked their lives for this country!

Taught you everything, dropped out of school at 17
Trying to get a job at an early age,
But no diploma means minimum wage.
Bumped into a military recruiter,
Said the same, no game, no first person shooter.
With high-school you missed it,
So that day you're enlisted.
First day off the...
Basic training, scared as fuck,
Thrill instructors, demons from hell
You never forget what you hear and yell
Six minutes of torture drives you insane
March, run, march, train!
You're asking yourself why the fuck you came,
Lock them all 30 rounds, watch your lane!

[Hook:]
I, I will always love you
I, I will always love you
I, I will always love you
We, we always will love you
We, we always will love you
We always will love you
Always will love you!
Always will love you!

Basic bullshit, the AIT,
Been through a unit, company, squad
You finally get a break 'cause training it's hard.
You meet your new fam, the platoon men
You bond with them, they become your boys
Two months later you're all deployed.
Now damn rain, shit gets real
Enemy shoot back, confirm your kills
You learn firsthand, PTST,
Your best friend's kill, by IED
You watch your whole team get blown apart
You catch a frag in a purple heart.
You write back home, you lost your pride
This struggle with God is a suicide
To this country you gave your life,
And we must respect your sacrifice!

[Hook:]
I, I will always love you
I, I will always love you
I, I will always love you
We, we always will love you
We, we always will love you
We always will love you
Always will love you!
Always will love you!
Always will love you!
Always will love you!

This goes out to my fellow vets
Sometimes you come home, you don't get the respect you deserve
You don't get the love and the praise that you should
Well, I'm here to give it to you right now!
A lot of times people don't realize
That the freedoms we have here
People have thought and died for it
Giving their lives!
Come on, man!
I love you!

[Hook:]
I, I will always love you
I, I will always love you
I, I will always love you
We, we always will love you
We, we always will love you
We always will love you
Always will love you!
Always will love you!
Always will love you!
Always will love you!
