I left Darfur because I lost all my family.
We have nothing.
We all live in hope.
I'm from Sudan, Darfur.
Hope and dream for living.
The situation is so desperately, so bad.
Three million people or more displaced either internally or externally.
My father was killed in front of me.
All the people, they want to live equal in Sudan.
So that's my dream.
One day I will open my eyes and see a [Bm] peaceful Darfur.
Soon as [A] you're born, they make you [Bm] feel small.
By giving you [E] no time instead of it [Bm] all,
till the pain is so big you feel [Bm] nothing at all.
[E] A working class hero is something [Bm] to be.
A [A] working class [E] hero is [Bm] something to be.
They hurt you at home and they hit you at school.
They hate if you're clever [A] and [Bm] despise a fool.
Until you're so [A] crazy you can't follow [Bm] the rules.
I have my brothers killed by Janjaweed.
Genocide right now is happening in Sudan.
A [A] working class [Em] hero is [Bm] something to be.
So with my eyes, they shot some of them on their heads.
A working class hero is something to be.
They're hunting them like somebody hunting rabbits.
When they torture [A] them, scared you [E] for 20 [Bm]-odd years.
Then they [A] expect you to pick a [Bm] career.
When you can't really [A] function, you're [Bm] so full of fear.
They raped 213 students.
A working class hero is something to be.
And his wife was raped next to his dead body.
A working class hero [E] is something [Bm] to be.
They killed them if they were boys and they raped them if they were girls.
All the jobs with [E] religion and sex and [Bm] DV.
They think you're so clever and classless and free.
But you're still peasants as far as I can see.
[A] A working class hero is something [Bm] to be.
A [E] working class hero is [Bm] something to be.
[E] What they're [B] doing at this [A] time is [E] existing peace over [B] there.
Whether that's genocide or ethnic [Bm] cleansing or crime against [A] humanity.
Whatever the definition, we want that to stop and to stop now.
They're round [E] at the top, they're [Bm] telling you still.
But first you must learn how to smile and to care.
If you want to be [E] like all the folks on [B] the hill.
A working class hero is something to be.
A working [A] class hero [E] is something [B] to be.
We do not need military might.
We [A] need UN peacekeepers to go in there [Bm] to protect those civilians.
A [A] working class [E] hero is [B] something to be.
Sudan government try to attack everybody who want to speak out.
I am afraid to stay there and so because of this I plead.
A working [A] class hero [E] is something [B] to be.
[A] If you want to be a hero, well just follow me.
If you want to be a hero, [G] well just [D] follow me.
And make a call for the [C] people of Darfur including the perpetrators who lived with us in peace for many years.
That governments come and go.
