Lyrics
Chorus
I am a soldier
A soldier of Zion
Yeah, I am a soldier
A soldier of Zion
Verse 1
I caught old elevation
And I pray so hard I be levitating
When you see my face, it's celebration
When I read that book, it's medication
I tell them go now instead of waiting
And I do so good with delegation
Less drugs equal better patience
And I pray to Jesus like a meditation
I know they going to see my dedication
I know somebody going to tell the nation
Did a little bit of separation
But I still uphold my reputation
And you just lie, no explanation
You should be sued for defamation
When you try my moves, you never make it
I know what to do, I kept it basic
Chorus
I am a soldier
A soldier of Zion
Yeah, I am a soldier
A soldier of Zion
Verse 2
I go for never-ever, I do
She a baddie, I never regret her
She don't pray, then she regular degular
I don't like her, I'd never submit her
I'll send her a letter
If she a stalker, I'll send it to Meta
She get my pictures and pin it together
Then I get drippy, I finished the weather
The summer was fun, but the winter is better
Good chain hitting off the leather
Two rings sitting on the dresser
You been playing with her, finesse her
I'll be praying with her, protect her
She like, "Fivio, I'm tired of your mess up"
(feat. The Fire Choir)
I'm like, "Baby, I'm tired of your pressure"
I'll be praying, I got to go extra
'Cause the Lord is my silent investor
Bridge
I watch 'em try to possess her
I watch 'em try to impress her
And they say, "Now, I'm the aggressor"
I'm only trying to bless her
I was evil, and now I'm a leper
If you smash it, tight together
Verse 3
This is the summary
She in here looking all summery
I got a fast heart for like a month and these
You got to pray to God if you want to win and me
Now, she be reading her Bible and suddenly
I think she think that I think she ain't loving me
Shorty is pretty, her demons is ugly
He put the pieces together, don't puzzle me
And when she see me, she happy and bubbly
Hugging me, telling me how much she wanted me
Working with Jesus, I think you should come with me
I got these demons to battle in front of me
I got this angel that's keeping me company
I had to get all these peoples from under me
I had to get all these peoples from under
Chorus
I am a soldier
A soldier of Zion
Yeah, I am a soldier
A soldier of Zion

Meaning & Inspiration
“Soldier” uses the language of spiritual service to frame faith as discipline, prayer, and perseverance. The recurring declaration of being “a soldier of Zion” gives the song its central identity, while the verses connect that identity with reading Scripture, turning away from drugs, and praying to Jesus. Celebration and struggle sit beside each other, presenting belief as an active commitment rather than a passive label.
The later verses move between relationships, personal reputation, and spiritual conflict. References to demons, an accompanying angel, and battles ahead create a picture of moral pressure that requires vigilance. The claim that prayer is necessary for victory closely echoes the song’s repeated call to spiritual readiness. Its urban gospel setting keeps the language conversational, but the chorus repeatedly returns the focus to allegiance to God and endurance in faith.
