Neverlands

They took my Madda, she named me Kugonza Muwanga
And that means love the creator, but I'm not sure that I wanna
God gave no love to Uganda, our neighbors Congo, Sudan and Rwanda
Fuck Disney couse East Africa never use Hakunamatata
So much taboo and drama, there's no tabula rasa
No blank slate, no new frontier to view and conquer
Just recycled voodoo, telling me they killed your mama
Now you kill their papa, as I lose my youth for honor
I'm a rebel child, deep in the Belly of Africa
They fed me my, home made original devil's pie
Cocaine and gun powder, take a line now say good bye
All I need is one line, to make jump to the front line
It's all so random they kill my family, and then they hold my hand
So I panic, they rip my shirt, I get my shoulder branded
The clothes I have are hand me downs from all these soldiers vanished
Only nine, I cannot cry, to show I'm savage

Ey you, Baby Boy, you saw I took your moms and pops
Away so now, you can't avoid, today you'll need to make a choice
All I wanted was someone's love, but then they gave me plenty toys
Then they gave me guns and drugs, and told me go and make some noise
Alright alright alright, it's not mine but I'll fight the fight
It's not right but it's my life, Father please forgive this child
I mean I'm just a kid, I want nothing big, just want to live
I'm left behind, I can't be right, Father forgive this child

Amen… Amen
Forgive this child… I mean
Shed light on me, let it shine and then
I might grow up to be a man
Wish that I was Peter Pan
Cuz being young was something I never had
I throw that wish out there
But it Neverlands

They took my father, why he name me Mu2men Saber
Cuz that means patient believer, but now I'm used to the anger
Baba was shot by cowards, I was tortured for hours
Fuck disney, no genies in the Mid East to give us power
I had this outer, body experience reaching Saturn
That follows martyrs, but reality had pulled me downwards
Yelling "Syria is Ours", these bullets shower
Cuz we trigger happy with these weapons coming from US and Saudi
I'm just a teen, in this scene, death surrounds me
I'm just sixteen, but I know how to hold an M-16 like I'm in the Army
But the army harmed me, so Karma called me
Told me they're the villains in this story, kill them and do not be sorry
There's no apologies, I watch these hostages
Return the favor with the same interest they offered us
And that's murder them, then we bury them coffin less
Hoping this preposterous mess helps me miss my father less

As a Baby boy, baba always told me son you
Can't avoid, your fate my boy, someday you'll need to make a choice
All I wanted was someone's love, when he died it left a void
All I got, Quran and guns, so after prayer I'll make some noise
Alright alright alright, in my mind gotta fight this fight
For my right to live my life, Allah please forgive my sins
I mean we must resist, I want nothing big, just wan to live
I'm left behind, I can't be right, Ya Rab forgive my sins

Ameen… Ameen
Forgive my sins, I mean
Shed light on me, let me know whether
Or not I've grown up to be man
Wish that I was Peter Pan
Cuz being young was something I never had
I throw wish out there
But guess what? It Neverlands
