Child Of War

Hey, can you hear me
I am a child of war
Iīm just a part of this hell here
Donīt know what itīs for

I played in my village when soldiers came

They said they donīt wanna
Share this country with us
Though we have lived together
For many years passed

And now they chase us away

Donīt kill me, brother, please donīt
Why canīt we live together, oh itīs so strange
You think, Iīm a menace to you, oh no, I wonīt
This country has room `nough for me and you

Hey, can you tell me
Donīt know, what is the cause?
How is it possible
That friends become such foes?

We lived peacefully `til yesterday

And now you rape our mothers
Our fathers you just kill
And in our refugee camp
Plagues make ill

Stop this killing, end that war

Donīt kill me, brother, please donīt
Why canīt we live together, oh itīs so strange
You think, Iīm a menace to you, oh no, I wonīt
This country has room `nough for me and you
