lirik lagu bigomuziq - child of a refugee
this is that
6 in the morning
boy still recording
boy so exhausted
but boy does he want it
soon as i let god in
seemed to find my calling
call it what you call it
but i’m only getting started
i was born and raised by a king and a queen
papa immigrated all the way overseas
mama said never let em’ shake up our dreams
a better life for you and me
child of a refugee
back forth
back forth
back
like a refugee
back forth
back forth
back
like a refugee
back forth
back forth
back
like a refugee
back forth
back forth
back
i’d like a
like a
like a
fresh new life and a fresh new start
dressed in blue and a red headscarf
letters from who she left abroad
prayer’s won’t do but she trusts in god
“just get through girl don’t get lost”
“just get through girl get checked off”
on an amtrak with your backpack
rest and backtrack
cuz’ you made it like and paak
yell it “yes lawd!”
been a while seen a smiley
know the kinds that keep you smiling?
love and hope keep surrounded
stay afloat see you drownin’
missin’ home different boundaries
locked you out key is kindness
help you out you need to find a
home from me you know you got it
i was born and raised by a king and a queen
papa immigrated all the way overseas
mama said never let em’ shake up our dreams
a better life for you and me
child of a refugee
back forth
back forth
back
like a refugee
back forth
back forth
back
mama raised a baby son
now that baby son a man
but i’m always baby, mom
fingers wrapped around your hands
cuz’ of you i can’t pretend
keep it real with who i am
all those times i ever spent
all alone i don’t regret
lessons
growth i can’t forget
in my soul and in my flesh
i carry torches of your past
to help me find my light and path
go on tour tell my fans
crazy stories about my fam
mom’s kousa leg of lamb
night hookah with my favorite friends
all those times i spent by myself they drove me numb
but they say who you spend time with really is who you become
so now my mind is made up
for all those nights i stayed up
in fear of tomorrow when i know that some may not wake up
see i got all that i need
i got all that i need
if it means something to you
then it means something to me
promise to get up and speak
and try to be your relief
if there’s no place to call home
then find your refuge with me
child of a refugee
i was born and raised by a king and a queen
papa immigrated all the way overseas
mama said never let em’ shake up our dreams
a better life for you and me
child of a refugee
