Salt Water

Nneka Egbuna

They said it would take only one and a half months for me to cross over the borders
I left my family .my wife my kids for us to seek a better life further.
The waters always attracted me when I was young
They say beyond far beyond the sea
There is a white God that would embrace me .release me.relieve me ,for I am heavy laden
Release .relieve me .from this endless burden.

Only salt water
Salt water .hunger thirst, fear of death
Family days and prayer.
We've been sailing for days
We've been searching for ways
Only salt water
No hope maybe death

We've lost so many of us for were running away from our fatr
Africa
Some of us made it into the promise land
on our getting there
We sell our souls
And then we suffer
Lord.
Release us front his inferiority complex
Dont need a new name
For you know my name

Only salt water
Salt water .hunger thirst, fear of death
Family days and prayer.
We've been sailing for days
We've been searching for ways
Only salt water
No hope maybe death
