Wavin' Flag Lyrics & Chords By Young Artists For Haiti

When I get older
I will be stronger
They'll call me freedom
Just like a wavin flag
Born from a throne
Older than Rome
But violent prone
Poor people zone
But it's my home
All I have known
Where I got grown
but now its gone
Out of the darkness
in came the carnage
threatening my very survival
Fractured my streets
and broke all my dreams
now Feels like defeat to wretched retreat
So we strugglin'
Fighting to eat
And we wonderin'
If we'll be free
We cannot wait for some faithful day
it's too far away so right now I'll say
When I get older
I will be stronger
They'll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
And then it goes back
And then it goes back
And then it goes back
Ahhho ahhho ahhho
So many wars settling scores
All that we've been through
and now there is more
I hear them say love is the way
Love is the answer that's what they say
But were not just dreamers
of broken down grievers
Our hand will reach us
and we will not see ya
This can't control us
no it can't hold us down
We gon pick it up even though we still struggling
Au nom de la survie
and we wondering
Battant pour nos vies
We patiently wait
for some other day
thats too far away so right now I say
When I get older
I will be stronger
They'll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
And then it goes back
And then it goes back
And then it goes back
Uhh... well alright
How come when the media stops covering
and there's a little help from the government
we forget about the people still struggling
and assume that its really all love again nahh
see we don't have to wait for things to break apart
if you weren't involved before it's never too late to start
you probably think that it's too far to even have to care
well take a look at where you live what if it happened there?
you have to know the urge to make a change lies within
and we can be the reason that they see the flag rise again
When I get older
I will be stronger
They'll call me freedom
Just like a wavin' flag
and then it goes back
and then it goes back
Then it goes back
When I get older
I will be stronger
They'll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
And then it goes back
And then it goes back
And then it goes back
When I get older
I will be stronger
They'll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
And then it goes back
And then it goes back
And then it goes back
When I get older
When I get older
I will be stronger
just like a waving flag
