LowerTheTone - Still Shoes, Remembering Alan Kurdi Lyrics

Wake up child its time to go
Leave this war and all we know
Let's leave behind this place of fear
Hold your brother, keep him near

I know its late, I know its night
But there's a place on the other side
A school for you, work for me
Maybe a house for our family

Look at the caravan of criminals and ghouls
Carrying disease and drugs
Already know what you say, you can't stay
What mine is mine, and it stays that way

Don't some of them look shady to you?
You know most of them are sick!
If we let them all they'll all stay
And take what's yours, and if you don't mind me saying
They don't look like us

Please don't get me wrong,
It's all so very sad, the little in the sand
Thoughts and prayers etc we say
But our policy is building walls
So go away

I carry everything I own on my back
And the hell I left behind, I'm never going back
This is our only hope
Why can't you see?

The hope I have stops me falling down
And this little hand that's in my hand
Stops me turning 'round
And the hope I have only keeps me strong
I've walked away these many miles
And I'll keep moving on
There's many like me you'll find in this mass of humankind

You see us as animals, not as human beings
I guess it makes it easier
Is that to go or will you stay, and feed your face
There's so many here already, they're all over the place

They call us a caravan of criminals and fools
Carrying disease and drugs
Already know what you say, you can't stay
What mine is mine, and it stays that way

I carry everything I own on my back
And the hell I left behind, I'm never going back
This is our only hope
Why can't you see?

And the hope I have stops me falling down
And this little hand that's in my hand
Stops me turning 'round
And the hope I have only keeps me strong
I've walked away these many miles
And I'll keep moving on
There's many like me you'll find in this mass of humankind
