Where I’m from
The lights go off and on all night long
Smelling gasoline and benjie when I was young
Kids on a corner singing gospel songs
and the people don’t stare at me like I’m wrong
That’s where I’m from
That’s where I’m from
If wings don’t fly no more
And tears don’t cry no more
Where are you father holy Jah Jah
On a desert road still the flower grows
you fill my water holy Jah Jah
Mama said it will be alright
Only cause she wants me to sleep at night
How much weight I can hold
Before my heart turns cold
Where I’m from
The lights go off and on all night long
Smelling gasoline and benjie when I was young
Kids on a corner singing gospel songs
and the people don’t stare at me like I’m wrong
That’s where I’m from
That’s where I’m from
Long ago home sweet home
Now I really wanna get back to you
Yeah the fire in my heart can’t be cooled
Every night we outside
Longing for what money can’t buy
We just wanna make it feel right
And mama said it will be alright
Only cause she wants me to sleep at night
How much weight I can hold
Before my heart turns cold
Where I’m from
The lights go off and on all night long
Smelling gasoline and benjie when I was young
Kids on a corner singing gospel songs
and the people don’t stare at me like I’m wrong
That’s where I’m from
That’s where I’m from
