Verse 1
At first I thought the world was ending.
Bombs dropping, ground shaking.
Here there, pain everywhere.
Saw it and I cried for so many years.
Push me to war, I got no tears.
You cried so loud, nobody hears.
You pray to God, nothing is clear.
Why are there so many dead people?
Everywhere you go, so much evil.
Many days I walked no water and bread.
6 years old burying their own dead.
Why did angels bless the path I lead?

[I survived I survived I survived I survived
I am of those called the Lost Boys
My peers are the Red Army (child soldiers)
I traveled on foot to Ethiopia
When hunger hit I ate snails
I asked God why did he lead us to evil

I held my Soul and almost died, Grandpa

Red army (child soldiers) we accept tomorrow will come
South (Junub) we accept tomorrow will come
Nuba we accepted tomorrow will come
Darfur we accepted tomorrow will come
Abyei we accepted tomorrow will come
Blue Nile we accepted tomorrow will come
Junub (South) we accepted tomorrow will come
Darfur we accepted tomorrow will come]
