It's not a memory core that I am here today
|
Life has been been so cold
|
But I'm not typical
|
I mean a long long time
|
I go I should have died
|
But see my blood's on fire
|
I can't help but survive
|
|
I never ran away
|
I done being afraid
|
Put it on my name
|
No matter what the stakes
|
Look it in the face of danger
|
'Cause sun has never been a stranger
|
|
I was the seed planted by lovers
|
In a refugee camping over seas
|
I grew free I grew more roots
|
And became a tree
|
So now they never gonna cut me down
|
Oh no, they never gonna cut me down
|
Oh no, they never gonna cut me down
|
Oh no, they never gonna ,never gonna
|
|
My skin is black and green
|
Nothing you haven't seen
|
You know my history I stand for victory
|
They turn their backs to me
|
They taking x to me
|
I got my wait up now
|
Nothing can knock me down
|
|
I never ran away
|
I done being afraid
|
Put it on my name
|
No matter what the stakes
|
Look it in the face of danger
|
'Cause sun has never been a stranger
|
|
I was the seed planted by lovers
|
In a refugee camping over seas
|
I grew free I grew more roots
|
And became a tree
|
So now they never gonna cut me down
|
Oh no, they never gonna cut me down
|
Oh no, they never gonna cut me down
|
Oh no, they never gonna ,never gonna
|
|
Oh a oh e I know how
|
Oh a oh e I survive now
|
(Oh a oh e I know how
|
Oh a oh e I survive now)
|
Oh a oh e I know how
|
Oh a oh e I survive now
|
(Oh a oh e I know how
|
Oh a oh e I survive now)
|
|
I was the seed planted by lovers
|
In a refugee camping over seas
|
I grew free I grew more roots
|
And became a tree
|
So now they never gonna cut me down
|
Oh no, they never gonna cut me down
|
Oh no, they never gonna cut me down
|
Oh no, they never gonna ,never gonna
