Obongjayar - Dreaming in Transit Lyrics

Do you see all these dreamers
Dreamers in the slums
Dreaming of colour
Living in a war

Do you see all my people
My beautiful people
A beauty forgotten
Forsaken by our own

Don't you turn your backs on us
Look what you've done
Look what you done

Don't you turn your backs on us
Look what you've done
Enough is enough

War is ready
War is ready
War is ready
We've had enough
We've had enough

War is ready
Politicians shame on them
War is ready
Our leaders shame on them
War is ready
We've had enough
We've had enough

When I was young I waved at planes
Hoping one day i'll fly away
Nobody told me I have wings
Nobody told me I have wings

I don't come from money
I don't come from memory
I have no inheritance
They've left nothing for me

Don't run away from this mare
Don't kill me and blame the west
Don't kill and blame your religion
You kill me you're killing yourself

Don't you turn your backs on us
Look what you've done
Look what you done
Don't you turn your backs on us
Look what you've done
Enough is enough

War is ready
Politicians shame on them
War is ready
Our teachers shame on them
War is ready
Look what you've done
What have you done

War is ready
Politicians shame on them
War is ready
Our teachers shame on them
War is ready
We've had enough
We've had enough

when I was young I waved at planes
hoping one day i'll fly away
nobody told me I have wings
nobody told me I have wings
