Wyclef Jean - Wish You Were Here lyrics

Lets go
so so you think you can tell
heaven from hell
blue skies from pain
can you tell a green field
from a cold steel rail
a smile from a vail
do you think you can tell
did they get you to trade
your heroes for ghosts
hot ashes for trees
hot air for a cool breeze
cold comfort for change
did you exchange
a walk on part in the war
for a lead role in the cage

whether your listening to hip hip-hop
or your tuning to rock
refugees on your box
we gonna take over ya blocks

lets go
how i wish, how i wish you were here
we´re just two lost souls swimming in a fish-bowl
year after year
running over the same old ground
but have we found the same old fearsWyclef Jean - Wish You Were Here - http://motolyrics.com/wyclef-jean/wish-you-were-here-lyrics.html
wish you were here

whether you listening to rock
or you pumping the hip-hop
refugees on your box

critics don´t mistake this for just any cover tune
I´ma take ya all to the dark side of the moon
kicking in my moms womb this song was just a thought
a young refugee labeled, just come with a passport
dad used to tell me about the american dream
my dream was waking up the projects
a young teen listening to hip-hop
my brother tuned me into rock
put me up on pink floyd a band from the british blocks

whether you pumpin the hip hip-hop
or you tuning to rock
refugees in your box we gonna take over your blocks
from n.j. to bk to the uk

how i wish, how i wish you were here
we´re just two lost souls swimming in a fish-bowl
year after year
running over the same old ground
but have we found the same old fears
wish you were here
