They are signed to Universal Republic, and have to date released five albums, the latest being "This Is Your Sign Part 2", which just released this April.

Led by the incredible vocals of front man Jake Segura, Citizen Soldier is also comprised of guitarists Matt Duffney and Kooper Hanosky, bassist Wonitta, and drummer Kyle Persell.

Here are the lyrics for Citizen Soldier's "Let It Burn", which plays at the end of this video:

"Take my hand and look at me in the eye
There's still time left
Cut these chords, and kid, run for your life

Maybe you're broken, maybe you're shattered
With no reasons left to try
But you still have so much, so much worth saving
That you have left on the inside

I know you feel like you are worthless, that your day has come
The misery eats you alive until you come undone
You feel like there is nowhere left to call your home tonight
You are not alone, this is our time, and I am by your side
My friend, this is do or die

Hey kid, can you hear me?
Don't you dare pull the trigger and throw it all away
You have every reason left to stay alive

All this hell you have lived and seen
Drown it all in gasoline
Then light a match, pull the pin
You are not who you've been
The past is just lessons learned
Light it up and let it burn

Never thought that it would come to this
Who will save you?
Fading fast, now you are cancerous

I know you feel hopeless at the end of your rope now
The fear is eating you alive
So I'll be your reason, I'll be your shelter
I will not let you say goodbye

Have you no reason to forget your pain and swear you'll stay?
If you kiss it all goodbye, my friend, the world will be a darker place
I know you're scared to death, but this is not the time to hide
You were meant for so much more, won't let you leave this world behind
What will it take to survive?

Hey kid, can you hear me?
Don't you dare pull the trigger and throw it all away
You have every reason left to stay alive

All this hell you have lived and seen
Drown it all in gasoline
Then light a match, pull the pin
You are not who you've been
The past is just lessons learned
Light it up and let it burn

You will remember the day
You burned it all to the ground
I know you've heard this before
But you've gotta be strong now
This is not the end

Hey kid, can you hear me?
Don't you dare pull the trigger and throw it all away
You have every reason left to stay alive

All this hell you have lived and seen
Drown it all in gasoline
Then light a match, pull the pin
You are not who you've been
The past is just lessons learned
Let it burn

Let it burn
Let it burn
The past is just lessons learned
Light it up and let it burn"
