"Better Life" text

"Better Life"

Leave your country
Leave the notes
Of your future and your goals

Leave your language
You once spoke
Leave the soil where you were born

Leave all
Leave the guards
Leave the stone
Crushed in your heart

You're my hero, you are mine
Dead or alive
Once you pushed me past the line
To a better life

Left your country
Left your father
Left your sister
Left their warmth

Leave all
We know too well
Leave this paradise, caught in hell

You're my hero, you are mine
Dead or alive
Once you pushed me past the line
To a better life

You're my hero, you are mine
Dead or alive
Once you pushed me past the line
To a better life

And I, I ran
And I, I ran
