Wyclef Jean - Freedom (Song For Egypt) lyrics
[Wyclef Jean - Freedom Song For Egypt lyrics]
Egypt i gotta sing for Egypt
This one is going for Egypt yeah, I
I see the youths
With the scars on their faces
These are the scars of courage
From the ancient places i see my sisters
I see their eyes through the veils
It’s been two weeks
And their kids have run out of milk
This is not the Exodus tell Pharaoh
Nobody is leaving we ain’t leaving
It’s more like a genesis
This is the beginning of freedom
Cairo wants freedom
The youth want their freedom
They singing revolution
And if the pyramids could talk
They probably would say
نريد الحرية لمصر الآن they want freedom
Cairo wants freedom egypt wants freedom
I’m talking about freedom
I see my brothers
Using the rocks for their weapons
They say the pharaoh must go
They want a peaceful solution yeah, I
I see the camels in the desserts
But they don’t have no riders
The people have taken over
They are the survivors yeah I
And this is not the exodus
Tell pharaoh the people ain’t leaving
We ain’t leaving it’s more like a genesis
This is the beginning of freedom
Cairo wants freedom the youth want freedom
They say a time revolution
And if the pyramids could talk
They would probably say
نريد الحرية لمصر الآن we want freedom
Egypt wants freedom
The youth want their freedom
The people want freedom
And Allah has not forgotten you
For he is grateful yeah, I
And the Lord will never forget you
He will grant you your freedom
I’m talking about freedom
He gave Moses his freedom
He gave Jesus his freedom
He gave Mohammed his freedom
He gonna give Egypt it's freedom
This one is going for Egypt yeah, I
I see the youths
With the scars on their faces
These are the scars of courage
From the ancient places i see my sisters
I see their eyes through the veils
It’s been two weeks
And their kids have run out of milk
This is not the Exodus tell Pharaoh
Nobody is leaving we ain’t leaving
It’s more like a genesis
This is the beginning of freedom
Cairo wants freedom
The youth want their freedom
They singing revolution
And if the pyramids could talk
They probably would say
نريد الحرية لمصر الآن they want freedom
Cairo wants freedom egypt wants freedom
I’m talking about freedom
I see my brothers
Using the rocks for their weapons
They say the pharaoh must go
They want a peaceful solution yeah, I
I see the camels in the desserts
But they don’t have no riders

They are the survivors yeah I
And this is not the exodus
Tell pharaoh the people ain’t leaving
We ain’t leaving it’s more like a genesis
This is the beginning of freedom
