The Refugee

Born in a war I doesn’t understand
All I feel is this land
While they rip my hand

I’m probably not ok
I’m probably not all right
I’m in a dark place
Not knowing if it’s day or night

Governments and Media
With their pack of lies
Will never tell the truth
Just look into my eyes

Read my mind
Now and then
I have trouble keeping it in

Images of memories
Imprinted in my mind
If only they didn’t sign them in

Stole all our needs
Afghan people bleeds
Who pocketed all the greens

A land of the Free
Not by killing the ones to be
