You Protect The Homeland And I Will Protect My Tent

You protect the Homeland and I will protect my tent

Under the rain, I stand confronting my cloud

Try to have your home drowned, and if not listen to me and understand

My Homeland drowns every day trapped inside of me is a refugee camp

 

You protect the Homeland and I will protect my tent

Under the rain, I stand confronting my cloud

Try to have your home drowned, and if not listen to me and understand

My Homeland drowns every day trapped inside of me is a refugee camp

The sky is my limit, and you keep your boundaries on the ground

I’m just a child but pain was forced upon my world

The sky is throwing its anger and we learn from its blows

We come up under the rocks and dream and progress

 

 

Frozen energies confined inside the camp

If death was real then long live the child of a refugee camp

Similar to trees we stay planted in the ground and grow and rise

Don’t worry about a Harsh world

Do what’s on your mind and listen to it

 

 

Like trees, we don’t bend even if the world puts pressure on us

Like trees, we don’t bend even if the world puts pressure on us

 

 

You destroyed a house and we built a tent

You made it rain and we took down the cloud

It’s mud blinded us .. the world is a mean place and people aren’t valued anymore

I’m digging into stones with my claws while my dreams Are attached to a stupid world

 

My brain grew old while I’m still a boy waiting for my rights to be achieved

I reach a dream I built and wrote on my shoulders, I won’t give up

Where’s the justice, I don’t see it. I’ve been a child in a refugee camp for years.

 

 

I’m looking for a land to contain me since my Arab roots have become a source of pain to me

Delete my history and erase me became none of you matter to me

 

You protect the Homeland and I will protect my tent

Under the rain, I stand confronting my cloud

Try to have your home drowned, and if not listen to me and understand

My Homeland drowns every day trapped inside of me is a refugee camp
