Dust In the Ground

Dust in the ground

I have a friend in Africa
He has a very kind soul
And I know this girl in Siberia
Where it’s always so cold

My friend raj lives in Mumbai
He looks like a Bollywood star
And poison arrow lives in England
He likes to drive a racing car

And my bff lives in New Jersey
She’s a medical student
She’s so sweet and beautiful
She’s just so magnificent

There is just one world
It’s where we all belong
No one better than no one
We all will be dust in the ground

I got a friend in Malaysia
She is a man utd fan
She wishes to see the boys play
It’s her future plan

There’s farmer in Peru
Every day he tend to his crops
And mothers losing children in wars
Tears falling like rain drops

President Obama sits in the white house
Bob Marley dies so very young
Terrorist learning to fly airplanes
Prince Charles waiting for the crown

There is just one world
It’s where we all belong
No one better than none
We all will be dust in the ground

China takes over Hong Kong
England had it for 100 years
And in Trinidad a New Yorker
Is drinking some cold beers

Everyone has a passion burning
But it’s easy to put out
Some times we listen to others
And in our minds they cast a doubt

And my mother in Trinidad
She’s an inspiration queen
And the best food in Trinidad
Is my brother place Naz cuisine

There is just one world
It’s where we all belong
No one better than none
We all will be dust in the ground
