awni - untha's vision i lyrics
[intro: awni]
broken not defeated
we are broken not defeated
yeah yeah yeah
broken not defeated
we are broken not defeated
yeah yeah
[verse 1: awni]
was a dark rugged day
feeling the light and feeling the wraith
smelling the fire sensing the cries hoping it might just go away
grabbing my son
grabbing my bag
in search for a new place to call my land
carried away, and pushed out by ak’s
my pride and dignity made me feel okay
i always stay strong and always stay lush
but just like the dust off we were just brushed
n0body notices except for our own
but they couldn’t help, cuz they’re on their own
so now i’m alone, feeling so thrown
just like the cigarette smoke we were blown
they first act like friends then they turn in to foes
then they k!ll you if you don’t get out your home
now it is theirs, and i feel so abandoned
where do i go, in mid city i was just stranded
i’m labeled a victim and then im deported
off to a city and everybody ignored it
it happens on the daily
i know it’s kinda crazy
looking in the eyes of my 2 year old baby
what do we do
we must make a living
is residing in a camp really considered livin’
it wasn’t special before
but at least it was ours
now i’m up all night, i can’t even just shower
no more internet surfing, and no more facebook browsers
and day after day my son crying out louder
i wish i can help, but i’m like a dead flower
don’t want to lead an example of being a coward
we first lost the father, and the other daughter
and now i got thoughts of becoming a martyr
but i was raised well
i must persevere
year after year
my vision ain’t clear
i need special treatment
my sons feeling sick
i can’t afford doctors
so my skins getting thick
tryna climb up but getting brick after brick
it isn’t just me that’s feelin like this
almost every year there are hundreds like this
and what hurts me most is that most of these kids
living like this
[outro: awni]
what if this was your kid?
or your life?
be happy you gotta a roof and a fam in your life
we only hear what we see
expand your mind and feel blessed for what you got in front of you
not what you want to have
im out
