BERWYN - I’D RATHER DIE THAN BE DEPORTED lyrics
[BERWYN - I’D RATHER DIE THAN BE DEPORTED lyrics]
(yeah) i used to sleep in a foreign
Wouldn’t really call it a foreign
Legally I was a no-one
To everyone I was just foreign
I didn’t exist in the eyes of the law
I had to hide it, fight it alone
You don’t wanna give someone a tool
That they can use when they want you gone
This is the life this is the roads
I had to die before I was born
I’d rather die than be deported hm
Yeah see, me and my cousin, man
We both alike we had to fight similar fights
We lived together, had similar lives
He did some shit but never you mind
He been inside and I never been
I like to think it's because I never slipped
He was more inclined to take the risk
I was more inclined to make us rich
And I know God had given me a gift
And I wasn’t trying to let it slip
And I wasn’t trying to let it go
This is the life this is the roads
I had to die before I was born
I’d rather die than be deported
This is the life this is the roads
I had to die before I was born
I’d rather die than be deported
This is the life this is the roads
I had to die before I was born
I’d rather die than be deported
Shout out to ssh for being my OG for being
My plug and my coach i’d run out of grub and
He’d always give me advice
Whenever I come to reload
He’d always told me that I
Shoulda gone off to uni'
But knows that I couldn’t go
And we were passengers in the same boat
Yeah, we were passengers in the same boat
Peddling crow out in the sun and the snow
Walking up and down the roads
Dropped out of college
And I joined the family business
So I could be more in control
This is the life this is the roads
I had to die before I was born
I’d rather die than be deported
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Ever been so hungry you had to teef
Because you know you got nothing to eat?
Baby yeah, I made it out of the streets
But the streets say they made it out of me
Out of me right here on my soul
Somewhere out here in the cold
This is the life this is the roads
I had to die before I was born
I’d rather die than be deported
This is the life this is the roads
I had to die before I was born
I’d rather die than be deported
This is the life this is the roads
I had to die before I was born
I’d rather die than be deported
Wouldn’t really call it a foreign
Legally I was a no-one
To everyone I was just foreign
I didn’t exist in the eyes of the law
I had to hide it, fight it alone
You don’t wanna give someone a tool
That they can use when they want you gone
This is the life this is the roads
I had to die before I was born
I’d rather die than be deported hm
Yeah see, me and my cousin, man
We both alike we had to fight similar fights
We lived together, had similar lives

And I know God had given me a gift
And I wasn’t trying to let it slip
And I wasn’t trying to let it go
This is the life this is the roads
I had to die before I was born
I’d rather die than be deported
This is the life this is the roads
I had to die before I was born
I’d rather die than be deported
This is the life this is the roads
