Egypt
I gotta sing for Egypt
This one is going for Egypt

Yeah, I?

I see the youths

With the scars on their faces
These are the scars of courage
From the ancient places

I see my sisters
I see their eyes
Through the veils

It's been two weeks
And their kids have run out of milk


[Hook]
This is not the exodus
Tell Pharaoh

Nobody is leaving
We ain't leaving
It's more like a genesis

This is the beginning of freedom

[Chorus]

Cairo wants freedom
The youth want their freedom
They singing revolution

And if the pyramids could talk they probably would say
نريد الحرية لمصر الآن
They want freedom

Cairo wants freedom
Egypt wants freedom
I'm talking about freedom


I see my brothers
Using the rocks for their weapons

They say the pharaoh must go
They want a peaceful solution
Yeah, I

I see the camels in the desserts
But they don't have no riders
The people have taken over

They are the survivors
Yeah I


[Hook]
And this is not the exodus
Tell pharaoh the people ain't leaving

We ain't leaving
It's more like a genesis
This is the beginning of freedom


[Chorus]
Cairo wants freedom

The youth want freedom
They say a time revolution
And if the pyramids could talk they would probably say

We want freedom
Egypt wants freedom
The youth want their freedom

The people want freedom

And Allah has not forgotten you

For he is grateful
Yeah, I
And the Lord will never forget you

He will grant you your freedom

I'm talking about freedom

He gave Moses his freedom
He gave Jesus his freedom
He gave Mohammed his freedom

He gonna give Egypt its freedom

[Hook]

And this is not the exodus
Tell pharaoh that the people ain't leaving
We ain't leaving
This is more like a genesis
This is the beginning of freedom


[Chorus]
Cairo wants freedom
Egypt wants freedom
The people want freedom

I'm talking about freedom

Freedom
One love to Egypt
