As I walk the streets of Cairo, I empathize as I go
And I feel ashamed of the land from where I came
Ashamed of where I came
Where we think different people, are the ones that harbor evil
But you gotta think harder cuz we're all the same
Think harder cuz we're all the same
Stop fearin' people before you meet them
And don't keep enemies until you must defeat them
My county: love it or leave it, That's shit and I don't believe it
A decaying standard and it's beggin' for change
A standard that's beggin' for change
Freedom is relative, I feel relatively free where I live
But down in Cairo it's not ours to give
Down in Cairo freedom's not ours to give
Stop fearin' people before you meet them
And don't keep enemies until you must defeat them
With our birds up high and their sons below
You don't know where every bomb will blow
With their sons below and birds up high
Are you made to be friends in heaven when you die
Stop fearin' people before you meet them
And don't keep enemies until you must defeat them
As I walk the streets of Cairo, I empathize as I go
And I feel ashamed of the land from where I came
