Omar Esa - Refugee (A Story of Struggle and Hope) lyrics

Verse 1: I'm just a stranger Trying to find my way I used to have a home But now I'm astray Running from the memories Of how I was betrayed Searching for humanity All I do is pray Pre-Chorus: Oh Allah, You're the only who Knows what I have gone through I put my faith in you Chorus: Refugee That is what I am Ya Ilahi I need your helping hand I don't know where to go from here It's like the world wants us to disappear Verse 2: I'm just like you We are all the same All I hear is lies about us We're not to blame The picture of my life now Doesn't have a frame We are standing here, alone Nothing to our names Pre-Chorus: Oh Allah, You're the only who Knows what I have gone through I put my faith in you Chorus: Refugee That is what I am Ya Ilahi I need your helping hand I don't know where to go from here It's like the world wants us to disappear Bridge: I am a refugee That is what I am And that is what they call me Ya Ilahi We need your helping hand We did not ask for war We are victims of society Chorus: Refugee That is what I am Ya Ilahi I need your helping hand I don't know where to go from here It's like the world wants us to disappear
