"Hold On" lyrics - ANA POPOVIC

The place I was raised was poisoned
Power in dangerous hands
Life long toll is our price
Exclusion as inheritance

Entering the embassy
Embarrassed by arrogant red tapes
Sent away, not accepted
I'm not from the United States

Priorities and privileges
Given to one by arbitrary
Others, like me, are
Damned to be the enemy

Getting out of airplane
Waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting in a cue
I'm the one they take aside
I'm not from the EU

I saw mosques and monasteries
Burning down in flame
The preachers of the western god say
It's me who takes the blame
I heard politicians screaming
For what I have to stand
My election days are over
What's left is a insult and a offend

Easy to crucify Hard to unify Hold on...

Priorities and privileges
Given to one by arbitrary
Others, like me, are
Damned to be the enemy

Easy to crucify Hard to unify Hold on...
