Wavin’ Flag Songtext
von K’naan feat. will.i.am & David Guetta

When I get older
I will be stronger
They′ll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
So wave your flag
Now wave your flag
Now wave your flag
Oh oh oh


Born to a throne
Stronger than Rome
But violent prone
Poor people zone
But it's my home
All I have known
Where I got grown
Streets we would roam
Out of the darkness
I came the farthest
Among the hardest survival
Learn from these streets
It can be bleak
Except no defeat
Surrender, retreat

So we struggling
Fighting to eat
And we wondering
When we′ll be free
So we patiently we wait
For that faithful day
It's not far away
But for now we say


When I get older
I will be stronger
I'll make it better
Struggle no longer
When I get older
I will be stronger
They′ll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
So wave your flag
Now wave your flag
Now wave your flag
Now wave your flag
Now wave your flag
Now wave your flag
Now wave your flag
Oh oh oh

So many wars (wars)
Settling scores (scores)
Bringing us promises
Leaving us poor
And in the situation
When there′s no compensation
They got no occupation, no buy no medication
See its a combination, of no education
We can never get it say, tomorrow's generation
Cause they can′t control us, no they can't hold us down
We gonna pick it up, even though we all struggling
Fighting to eat
And we wondering
When we′ll be free
So we patiently wait, for that faithful day go
It's not far away, but for now we say

When I get older
I will be stronger
I′ll make it better
Struggle no longer
When I get older
I will be stronger
They'll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
So wave your flag
Now wave your flag
Now wave your flag
Now wave your flag
Now wave your flag
Now wave your flag
Now wave your flag

Ohhhh ohhhh ohhhhh ohhhh
And everybody will be singing it (Ohhhh ohhhh ohhhhh ohhhh)
And you and I will be singing it (Ohhhh ohhhh ohhhhh ohhhh)
And we all will be singing it (Ohhhh ohhhh ohhhhh ohhhh)
Ohhh ohh ohh

When I get older
I will be stronger, stronger, stronger
I will be stronger, stronger, stronger
I will be stronger
They'll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
So wave your flag
Now wave your flag
Now wave your flag
Now wave your flag
Now wave your flag
Now wave your flag
Now wave your flag

Yeah
Ohhhh ohhhh ohhhhh
Just like a waving flag
Just like a waving flag
Just like a waving flag
Just like a waving flag
