Wavin' Flag Songtext
von Mini-Pops

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 it's gone
And out of the darkness, in came the carnage
Threatening my very survival

Fractured my streets and broke all my dreams
And feels like defeat, to wretched retreat
So we strugglin', fighting to eat
And we wonderin′, if we′ll be free
And we cannot wait, for some fateful day
It's too far away, so right now I say

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
And then it goes back, oh


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 we′re not just dreamers or broken down grievers
A hand won't reach us and we will not see a
This can't control us, no it can′t hold us down
We gon′ pick it up, even though we still
Strugglin', oh no less you′ll be
And we wonderin', that don′t fool no fee
We patiently wait, for some other day
That's too far away, so right now I say

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
And then it goes back, oh

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
And then it goes back, oh


How come when the media stops covering
It′s a little help from the government
Forget about the people still struggling
And assume that it's really all love again? Nah
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 their 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
And then it goes back

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
And then it goes back, oh

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
And then it goes back, oh
When I get older, when I get older
I will be stronger, just like a wavin′ flag
