Getting overthrown by the rebels in the villages
Mom went to jail
Daddy was the captain of the army
Civil war, I remember when it started
Night time staring at the sky

Momma made it out of jail
But the war was at it's peak
Dead bodies laying on the streets
Can't trust a soul and you can't trust police
All the churches empty
'Cuz they shot the priests
Momma found my brother but she can't find me
Alone in my daddy house, nothing there to eat
She brought me bread
But was scared, to take me with her
'Cuz I know my dad would probably kill her
She told her sister, 'baby please go get em'...
A week later flew out to Belgium
