Braille - Refugeemix

from Braille by Joe Ransom

about

Remix/edit by Quinn McHugh plus inspiring spoken word message (a collaboration between Quinn and Joe).

lyrics

Like a refugee
I gotta flee
From their political and media lies
I'll seek asylum in those with truth and love in their eyes
I'm definitely still inspired by being alive
There is still enough time to cast off the barb wire
The vehicle of pursuit which they drive now has a punctured tire
The border of hope is open and that's why my fire burns
My glass half full, cos I've chosen to constantly learn
I've got a roof over my head, I've got a shirt on my back
What more do I really need?
You tell your optometrist friend the sight is coming back...
