Chorus:

I couldn’t breathe I couldn’t breathe
I don’t know why,
I was near death I thought I was going to die.
I couldn’t breathe I couldn’t breathe
I don’t know why,
I’m in this new land with cold grey skies.

I was there I was there in that beautiful land,
Filled with trees fresh air and sand.
I was once the luckiest guy on earth,
But now I’ve stepped into a rich mans turf.

I’ve lost all my money and now I’m broke,
I can’t even afford a coke.
Cleaning toilets and sweeping streets,
Now get into this refugee beat.

Chorus

In my life I’ve faced depression, confession
But not as good as my succession.
Now I’m stuck I’m a refugee
I’m in a twist please help me.

I’m on my way to the top,
And I can’t afford to drop.
I’m a refugee I don’t know why,
This is the end of the song, goodbye.
