Soil To Embrace Lyrics - Nuestros Derechos

Running from the war on terror, 

Attempting to flee sectarian and ethnic hatred. 

Kids who've seen too much for one lifetime 

escaped when death squads took their family 

part of the spoils of war and being raped 

traumatized by bloodshed and war crime 

Paid to embark on a treacherous odyssey 

Thousands of miles through hostile lands 

No rest for the wrecked 

Wandering in search of soil to embrace 

Soil to embrace 

Now they are trapped, broke and hungry. Non-stop living in fear. 

Casualties of moral cowardice. 

Exhausted, no shelter from the cold and rain, 

the stench of sickness and despair, 

It is a miserable, feral existence. 

Victims of a war their government helped to unleash 

Rejected, abandoned and adrift: how can they cope? 

Victims of a world where authorities do as they please 

Rejected, abandoned and adrift inside fortress Europe 

Now they are trapped, broke and hungry. Non-stop living in fear. 

Casualties of moral cowardice. 

Exhausted, no shelter from the cold and rain, 

the stench of sickness and despair, 

It is a miserable, feral existence. 

Paid to embark on a treacherous odyssey 

Thousands of miles through hostile lands 

No rest for the wrecked 

Wandering in search of soil to embrace 

Soil to embrace 

Now they are trapped, broke and hungry. Non-stop living in fear. 

Casualties of moral cowardice. 

Returning home is no option, even though life here's grim. 

The truth is we all want a better life
