Where I'm from there are no mountains
And time is standing still

Where I'm from there's barely space left
Still they're running up a hill
Where I'm from they don't like changes

Even if alarm bells ring
Where I'm from they have a princess
Where I'm from they have a king


Where I'm from they don't like dreamers
They are told to shut their mouth

Where I'm from they're divided
Between the North and the South
Where I'm from it's like a long night

That never turns to day
Where I'm from the kingdom's trembling
Where I'm from they've lost the way


Sing it loud today
Sing it loud today

I'm singing it loud today
I am the one that got away


Where I'm from they just keep rooted
Heads are always hanging low
Where I'm from the Congo River

Never got nowhere to go
Where I'm from words are repeated
But they never really rhyme

Where I'm from the kingdom's trembling
Where I'm from they're losing time


Where I'm from there's a lack of heroes
Both in politics and song
Where I'm from the more they fix it

The faster everything goes wrong
Where I'm from I still remember
So I will sing it every day

That this kingdom is still my kingdom
It's encoded in my DNA
