Lyrics Dreaming in Transit - Obongjayar

Dreaming in Transit

Do you see all these dreamers?
Dreamers in the slums
Dreaming of color
Living in a war
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’ve 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 teachers shame on them)
War is ready
We’ve had enough, we’ve had enough
When I was young (?) hoping one day I’ll fly away
Nobody told me I had wings
Nobody told me I had 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 mess
Don’t kill me and blame the world
Don’t kill me 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’ve 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 (?) hoping one day I’ll fly away
Nobody told me I had wings
Nobody told me I had wings
When I was young (?) hoping one day I’ll fly away
Nobody told me I had means
Nobody told me I had means
When I was young (?) hoping one day I’ll fly away
Nobody told me I had means
Nobody told me I had means
