Lyrics to Where I'm From
No, no, no-no, no, no
No, no, no-no, no, no
No, no, no-no, no, no
Thinking of where I'm from deep in the night
Dreaming of where I'm from all my life
Watching who I've become, who's my tribe?
Dreaming of where I'm from, na-na-na
Oh (Na, na-na, na, na)
Oh, oh-oh
Oh (Na, na-na, na, na), ooh
Oh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh (Na, na, na), ooh-ooh
Oh (Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Oh (Na, na, na), ooh-ooh
Oh (Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
As a girl, I dreamed about it
Maybe I was queen, I'd wear it so soft
Whisper me my name so I can (Yeah)
Hear my people sing whenever I'm lost
I wanna testify, lead me in your direction
It was my birthright, give me the recollection
Yearning sea to sea (Like a dove, I'll sail across, yeah)
Watch me spread my wings (Africa to Panama, yeah)
Thinking of where I'm from deep in the night
Dreaming of where I'm from all my life
Watching who I've become, who's my tribe?
Dreaming of where I'm from, na-na-na
Morning light hits my ceiling
Tell the sky I'm still dreamin'
'Cause my blood, it runs like a river through my veins
And it sounds like a thousand names
When I touch that place, peace is an ancient feelin'
Hear the sound it makes, secrets the soil's keepin'
And it sings to me
Sweetest melody, ooh
Thinking of where I'm from deep in the night
Dreaming of where I'm from all my life
Watching who I've become, who's my tribe?
Dreaming of where I'm from, na-na-na
Oh (Na, na-na, na, na)
Oh, oh-oh
Oh (Na, na-na, na, na), ooh
Oh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh (Na, na, na), ooh-ooh
Oh (Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Oh (Na, na, na), ooh-ooh
Oh (Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Now it's so loud, you gotta feel it
Now it's so loud, you gotta feel it
Lost but found, now you gotta keep it
Lost but found, now you gotta keep it
No, no, no-no, no, no
No, no, no-no, no, no
Thinking of where I'm from deep in the night
Dreaming of where I'm from all my life
Watching who I've become, who's my tribe?
Dreaming of where I'm from, na-na-na
Oh (Na, na-na, na, na)
Oh, oh-oh
Oh (Na, na-na, na, na), ooh
Oh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh (Na, na, na), ooh-ooh
Oh (Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Oh (Na, na, na), ooh-ooh
Oh (Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
As a girl, I dreamed about it
Maybe I was queen, I'd wear it so soft
Whisper me my name so I can (Yeah)
Hear my people sing whenever I'm lost
I wanna testify, lead me in your direction
It was my birthright, give me the recollection
Yearning sea to sea (Like a dove, I'll sail across, yeah)
Watch me spread my wings (Africa to Panama, yeah)
Thinking of where I'm from deep in the night
Dreaming of where I'm from all my life
Watching who I've become, who's my tribe?
Dreaming of where I'm from, na-na-na
Morning light hits my ceiling
Tell the sky I'm still dreamin'
'Cause my blood, it runs like a river through my veins
And it sounds like a thousand names
When I touch that place, peace is an ancient feelin'
Hear the sound it makes, secrets the soil's keepin'
And it sings to me
Sweetest melody, ooh
Thinking of where I'm from deep in the night
Dreaming of where I'm from all my life
Watching who I've become, who's my tribe?
Dreaming of where I'm from, na-na-na
Oh (Na, na-na, na, na)
Oh, oh-oh
Oh (Na, na-na, na, na), ooh
Oh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh (Na, na, na), ooh-ooh
Oh (Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Oh (Na, na, na), ooh-ooh
Oh (Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Now it's so loud, you gotta feel it
Now it's so loud, you gotta feel it
Lost but found, now you gotta keep it
Lost but found, now you gotta keep it
