Pearls
There is a woman in Somalia
Scraping for pearls on the road side
There’s a force stronger than nature
Keeps her will alive
This is how she is dying
She is dying to survive
Don’t know what she is made of
I would like to be so brave
She cries to the heaven above
There is a storm in my heart
She lives a live she didn’t choose
And it hurts like brand new shoes
Hurts like brand new shoes
There is a woman in Somalia
The sun gives her no mercy
The same sky we lay under
Burns her to the bone
Long as after the shadows
Is gonna take her to come home
Each grain carefully raped up
Pears for her little girl
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
She cries to the heaven above
There is a storm in my heart
She lives in a world she didn’t choose
And it hurts like brand new shoes
Hurts like brand new shoes.
