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 [Hook] 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 [Hook] 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 [Hook] 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 [Hook] 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 its freedom
