Fire In Freetown - K'NAAN

There’s no way to write it, there’s no way to fight it

And I kick and scream but you got me despite it

And I got my pride so I begin to hide it

Like fire in Freetown you begin to light it

Aha ha Aha ha, sidii hogasha roobka

Aha ha Aha ha, you shine down upon me

Aha ha Aha ha, sidii hogasha roobka

Aha ha Aha ha, you shine down upon me

By some higher order, you keep getting bolder

By God or by country you kill like a soldier

By some riddle you sung little, but scream mighty stronger

Like fire in Freetown, you old magic spoiler

You place pins in my ribs and ask me to lie down

My pain is your pleasure but pleasure is all mine

You lend me your false ear, I’ll lend you my false line

Like fire in Freetown, I’m fueled by your gold mine

Fire fire!

Fire fire, She pulled out her match and she burned down my home

Fire fire, She always can find me, she know where I roam

Fire fire, She know where to touch me to turn me to stone

Fire fire, She come like a storm and she rain on my lawn

Fire fire, She know where to touch me to rune me to stone

Fire fire, She always can find me, she know where I roam

Fire fire, She pulled out her match and she burned down my home
