Back home we talk with the heart
We know kindness without judgment
When we reach out our hands
It's to offer what's inside
Back home there are a thousand and one nights
Our eyes sweat gold and fire
There are tables filled with fruit
Lips have my elders' accent
Back home some roll their r's
Others talk little or talk loud
From the snows or the deserts
They all took the North one day
We tell each other ancient fables
That pass from memory to memory
We know where our roots grow
We're not ashamed of our history
Back home people sow, sow
They make the seeds bloom
So they become life
Back home people love each other
Differences are beautiful
In my blood there's war
But above all there's love
In my blood mingle
Peoples and mist
But there's only love
That truly tells my story
Back home how many destinies
Deserve to be heard
And even if it's nothing to you
How many of us have known
Those boats we were forced to take
The life we had to relearn
To forget what we had known
That rolled straight to death
Back home, there are real ties
Back home there's also a gypsy
Who sang at night by the fireside
Back home people sow, sow
They make the seeds bloom
So they become life
Back home people love each other
Differences are beautiful
In my blood there's war
But above all there's love
In my blood mingle
Peoples and mist
But there's only love
That truly tells my story
If there's only one thing to keep
It's that back home it's about sharing
But we've got the heart as heritage
Back home there's transmission
It smells of the city, it smells of the sea
Money's counted in traditions
Back home women are strong
Whoever we are we're loved
Because everyone becomes memories
Back home people sow, sow
They make the seeds bloom
So they become life
Back home people love each other
Differences are beautiful
In my blood there's war
But above all there's love
In my blood mingle
Peoples and mist
But there's only love
That truly tells my story
Back home people sow, sow
They make the seeds bloom
So they become life
Back home people love each other
Differences are beautiful
Back home people sow, sow
They make the seeds bloom
So they become life
Back home people love each other
Differences are beautiful
