Egypt

(Verse 1: Deraj)
Oh Samantha
Give me an answer
Yeah why’d you let him
Yeah why’s you let him hit you that way?
And he’s your leader
But he mistreats you
You sit here in Egypt
They say the seasons never change
You say, I’m just holding
All the pieces together
Never wanted you to see
All the trouble and the pain that surround me;
And maybe this will all work out for the better
Maybe in another life
That’s what i say inside
But every night i cry

(Hook: Deraj)
Oh Pharaoh
Let all my people go
They won't bow no more
Slave master
I'm after freedom now
I will never bow

(Verse 2: Deraj)
I try to keep my tears quiet cause he’s sittin' in the other room
And here I’m really like a sad face
And I’ve been praying for like 400 years for a new moon
But all I see is bad days, and goodbyes
To this hope, this weak rope, I cope with it
Tears for years, all year I’m so done with it
Soaked in my tears from all the years
Of crying out, it’s like nobody hears
Man, I ain’t the type to cry a river
But I’d be lyin' i ain’t want someone to come deliver us
And I’ve been looking at these pictures
Smiling and reminiscing, man I forgot how this feeling was
Was like the middle of December
Praying for cold winters but its like nobody’s hearing us
Cause its as hot as hell here
Feelin' I’m living in a jail cell hoping for a farewell

(Hook: Deraj)
Oh Pharaoh
Let all my people go
They won’t bow no more
Slave master
I’m after freedom now
I will never bow

Never, never ever ever
I will never ever ever
I will never ever ever
I will never

(Verse 3: Instrumental)
