Haven

A lot of bad water is running down
Our frightened river
The reason why the big fishes seethe
They all should move away
That’s what I’m trying to do
I’m close to the surface, not close enough to breathe
I’m struggling through the dirt, trying to reach the air
But I can’t get to the waterfront
Already crowded and no space to share
This is my home — Where I must be This is the only place where I’m me This is my Haven — Where I belong
This is the place where I’m strong
Woke up this morning and my fish was dead
Saw the panic on the surface, now I don’t wanna leave
My wealth is here
Shore glitters gold, promising better, richer days
It’s all twisted by the waves
There’s nowhere they can go Just another polluted zone
This place I call my own
I’ll stay here with my own
This is my home — Where I must be This is the only place where I’m me This is my Haven — Where I belong
This is the place where I’m strong
