ONE NATION
For years everyone's been asking
why I came here,
I sat and thought and researched
how indeed did I get here?
Dad said Grandpa and Grandma
left everything and came here,
me and my soul are here,
roots are in the ground here,
as I began to grow,
then I began to ask
Mommy, answer,
I didn't understand
how did we get here?
Mom said Grandpa nad Grandma
left everything and came here,
my brother built a world here,
uncles and aunts, all are here.
Chorus:
We are one nation, with the same dream,
together forever, living from day to day,
we are one nation, we have a place
so give love a moment to breathe.
[Arabic]
And if you're asking,
then I answer in honesty,
nothing in life
willl return my desire for exile,
hundreds of years passed
until we went
from slavery to freedom,
surely not easily,
in my heart, inside me it's engraved,
I grew up here,
I'm not going back there
believe me gang
that even blood won't move me from here,
relatives, friends, children
all things dear to me are here,
it's a waste of everyone's time,
I'm here and I'm not disappearing.
Chorus
