Mr Jinx - Highland Soldier (Scottish Rapper) There was a soldier a Scottish soldier who wondered far away and soldiered far away there was none bolder with good broad shoulder he fought in many a fray fought and won won won won won won won won won... Our story begins in 1745 just after the demise of the Jacobites for soon men were to be treated like mice for the sheep and only a fraction of the clans took part in Culloden but all felt whats lost and shall not be forgotten cuz what was to come was just dirty and rotten sheep it shall not be forgotten and just why it was felt was the proscription of our arms and of our tartan and kilt as lowlanders stood by watching feeling no guilt just like sheep and now the bleat is the sound of the hills and it still strikes a nerve cuz they killed and they raped and they hanged and they chased and we ran from the fire and murder they chased and we ran further and further and the sheep took our place pon our clans terra firma truly our neighbors are fiends when hundreds and thousands of Highlanders died for your queen just like idiots got as far as India and Egypt to fight for a throne they dont even believe in and what we returned from them battles to see is our countrymans gone and replaced by the sheep and forced to the coastland to live by the sea to wait for the boats time to come to set us free plagued by poverty famine and disease we were once great warriors now forced to flee cuz of sheep the sheep the sheep Times moved on now many of us gone now we left here on immigrant ships to the Western Hemisphere theres nothing left here to make us stay the day-to-day so-called improvement of our land is forcing us away so in 1803 10,000 of us hit the sea driven by poverty eviction and sheep 20,000 leagues deep but many miles across a perilous trek in which many lives were lost on these great trips white-sailed ships no better than slave ships still we carried on and made it to travel on to new lands such as Nova Scotia till the whole world overs felt the presence of this Highland soldier forced to fight in wars in which we should have played no part because we had the bravest heart battles we were made to start wild-eyed and courageous to us our land was sacred but you just had to take it and break it.!!!
