Lyrics

A child who is carried doesn't realize just how far the journey is
Still we move forward
Give thanks to the most high, safe journey all the while
Ijeoma
Oh oh oh oh ye, see
Until I can feel free to walk on the streets
In my own country, where I was born
Until there is no one trying to eliminate me
For the parties that they appease
Don't hold your breath for me
'Cause I don't wanna be
No, I don't wanna be
No sitting duck, you see
I'll be a refugee
Not seeking sympathy
I'm just a refugee
If that's the way it's gonna be
Just a refugee
Not seeking sympathy
Just a refugee
Living overseas
Until the flag we fly so proudly
Becomes a symbol of peace, hope and prosperity
Tell me how can I live where there's no love
None for you, none for me
I'll be a refugee, you see
So don't hold your breath for me
Because I don't wanna be
No sitting duck, you see
Ooh wee
I'm just a refugee
Seeking no sympathy
I'm just a refugee
And that's the way it's gonna be
A refugee
Just a refugee
I'll be a refugee
Not seeking sympathy
Ooh wee, yeah I
Refugee, ooh wee, ooh wee
Ooh wee
Until there's true love and harmony
Let's learn to live with each other in unity, ooh wee
And then you realize the fight is not against us
In the father whom I put my trust
'Cause I don't wanna trust in love
Don't hold your breath for me
'Cause I don't wanna be
No, I don't wanna be
No sitting duck, you see
I'll be a refugee
Not seeking sympathy
Refugee, ooh wee, ooh wee (refugee)
Ooh wee, yeah I, yeah ye
I'll be a refugee
Not seeking sympathy
Just a refugee
Living overseas
