Michael Franti - What I've Seen
If I told you what I'd seen
Would you believe me
Or leave me alone
If I told you what I feel
Would you believe me
Or leave me alone
Razor wire on the street every corner
Ninety degrees at six in the morning
Boilin' water for the tea of a nation
Plantin' seeds for the next generation
Run like mad just to make a connection
Pack whatcha need for your own protection
Dance to the rhythm of the wheels on the street
Long long strides on the hot concrete
Hello hello
Does anybody need a place to go
To call your own
Hello hello
Does anybody need a place to go
To call your own
Numbers go and the numbers come
Try your best makin' two outta one
Work all day in the mid-day sun
Break your back 'til the night time comes
Sing for your bread and sing for your water
Sing for your sons and sing for your daughters
Sing for your pops and sing for your mamas
Sing for your breakfast pray for your supper
Hello hello
Does anybody need a place to go
To call your own
Hello hello
Does anybody need a place to go
To call your own
To call your own to call your own
Ya ya don't leave me here alone
Ya ya don't leave me here alone
Ya ya don't leave me here alone
Don't leave me here alone
Hello hello
Does anybody need a place to go
To call your own
Hello hello
Does anybody need a place to go
To call your own
To call your own
Hello hello
Does anybody need a place to go
To call your own
Hello hello
Does anybody need a place to go
To call your own
To call your own to call your own
Would you beleive me
Would you believe me
Your not alone no your not alone
Would you beleive me
Would you beleive me
I know your not alone
Cause your not alone
