Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][B][C][Cm]
[G]

[Verse 1]
I was [B]told go
back where I came [C]from
Back where I belong,
[A]but I don’t know where I b[G]elong

[Verse 2]
I was brought [B]here in my
mother[C]’s arms
Just a little [A]girl searching for the [G]stars

[Verse 3]
Circum[B]stances forced my
parents [C]to leave
We crossed the [A]line,
[G][B][C][A][G][B]
[C]in [A]198[C]9[D][G]

[Verse 4]
It’s never [B]easy to leave your life be[C]hind
A whole new [A]culture,
a brand new way [G]of life

[Verse 5]
Without knowing the lan[B]guage,
without even [C]a dime
The only frame [A]of mind is

[Verse 6]
to keep that dream alive
[A]
[D]It’s not eas[A]y to sur[D] vi[C]ve[G][D]
It’s not easy to sur[C]vive[G]
[D]

[Verse 7]
Let’s not for[G]get [B]about the ones
[C]who weren’t so luc[D]ky
They traveled [G]far in [B]search of
their [C]American [D]dream
Only to [G]find [B]a world so
[C]cruel and [A]empty
While the [D]city burns

[Verse 8]
and [C]world rages
the kids are still [G]in cages
[B]While the city burns [C]an d world rages the [D]kids
are still [G]in cages

[Interlude 1]
[B][C][A][D][C][D]
[G]

[Verse 9]
As time goes by and you [B]as similate
and you integrate
It’s easy [C]to forget that you
[A]were once in their [G]shoes

[Verse 10]
With every car you buy and the [B]“I got
mine I don’t care” mental[C]ity
You loose your humanity
[A]

[Verse 11]
How can you live with [D]your[C]self?[G]
[D]How can you live with yoursel[C]f?[G]
[D]

[Verse 12]
Let’s not for[G]get [B]about the ones
[C]who weren’t so luc[D]ky
They traveled [G]far [B]in search of
their [C]American [D]dream
Only to [G]find a [B]world so [C]cruel and empty
[A]

[Verse 13]
While the [D]city burns [C]and world rages
The kids are still [G]in [B]cages[C]
The [D]kids are still [G]in [B]cages[C]
The [D]kids are still [G]in [B]cages[C]
The [D]kids are still [G]in cages
[B][C][A][D][C][D]

[Verse 14]
[D]
What [C]about them?
What [G]about them?

[Verse 15]
The kids [B]in cages
Are waiting for [C]a friend
What about them?
What [G]about them?

[Verse 16]
The kids [B]in cages
Are waiting to [C]be saved
[G]What about [B]them?[C]
What [G]about [B]them?[C]
