Far Away

Lyrics

[Intro] So far away, so far away There's a place, far away So far away [Chorus] Far, far away, there's a land Where I and I brethren hail from Seems some have forgotten what did happened When we were taken and brought down here [Verse 1] There was a different, a different atmosphere Treatin' us so bad, like they really didn't care Far away, far away Yes, we came from far away, oh yes Changing our ways and our language That's what they did Taking our right and giving us wrong Never wanting us to be a free man [Pre Chorus] Free men, far away So far away we came [Chorus] Far, far away, there's a land Where I and I brethren hail from Seems some have forgotten what did happened When we were taken and brought down here [Verse 2] Seems like these things never change to me 'Cause we are still livin' in slavery Far way, yes we came Africa, so far away [Verse 3] Inna Africa, a land so rich Youth just can't get a simple dish Nothing at all and it makes I-man bawl Far away, so far away [Chorus] Far, far away, there's a land Where I and I brethren hail from Seems some have forgotten what did happened When we were taken and brought down here In South Africa they have a scheme Treatin' my people like they weren't humans beings [Outro] So far away, far away Yes, we came Far, far away, there's a land Where I and I brethren hail from Seems some have forgotten what did happened
