Death came in to our lives
Stood right by our side
Daddy's gone now, momma's sad
You'll stay forever young

Yeah, we know how to act
But we gon fight another round
Take a path out where we're from
Cos we ain't going back to that life

We are the new generation
The children of the Sun
We obey the rules that are written in our hearts
We don't go to school
Just keep travelling around
You know that we look so strong
But inside we're breaking down

Come on, pappa
You should come back home
Your girls have been staying strong for far too long
Momma and me, we're out alone
We don't need a man
But we need you
So pappa, I'm begging you
Just come back home
Come back home

Yeah we lived through hard times
I almost lost my mind
But your memory helped me out
I've got what it takes to survive

I don't believe in desperation
Such a waste of time
I obey the rules that are written in my heart
No more looking back
I got my feet on solid ground
I'm trying to be so strong
But sometimes I still break down

Come on, pappa
You should come back home
Your girls have been staying strong for far too long
Momma and me, we're out alone
We don't need a man
But we need you
So pappa, I'm begging you
Just come back home

Momma and me, we're out alone
We don't need a man
But we need you
So pappa, I'm begging you
Just come back home
