Rocking Ship (feat. Yaksha & Alpha Steppa)

You've come so far
From war zones and dictatorships
In search of a better life
You've come so far
From war zones and dictatorships
But travelling on the blade of a knife

To my friend, I am sorry, sorry for your loss
All I found was safe European hope
Behind the borders you tried to cross
I would send you a message of solidarity
But I know that statement comes far too easily

You've come so far
From war zones and dictatorships
In search of a better life

I've not spent years waiting for the day
When I can find a resting place that doesn't rock and sway
Down at the passport office, I handed in my form
And now I can't cross any line 'cause of the place where I was born

You've come so far (on a rocking ship)
From war zones and dictatorships
In search of a better life

On the beaches in Lesbos, the jungle in Calais
You've been travelling for forever and a day
As smugglers approach you with bullets in their eyes
The government make you queue day after day, their promises are lies

You've come so far
You're just a person, your state is not an identity
What I'm sending is an apology

You've come so far (on a rocking ship)
From war zones and dictatorships
In search of a better life
You've come so far
From war zones and dictatorships
Travelling on the blade of a knife
