JOURNEY 2 USA Lyrics

Started with a 3 day journey to Namibia

They didn't let me in 'cuz I didn't have a Visa

And that Visa is why I went in the first place

Almost broke down man those were my worst days

So I made a call with my Dad and my Mum

Barely had signal it was on and off

Eventually it picked up, we began to talk

Still the immigration officer cut me off

Stuck in the boarder for about 8 hours

In between the time I needed to devour

Looked for a place I could get something to eat

Then I found one so I bought a lil treat

Officers told me they'll find someone who's going back

I didn't complain so told 'em I was cool with that

Then a man arrived with a truck in the evening

He offered me a ride, I couldn't believe it

Of course it wasn't free I knew I had to pay

Told my pops about it and I payed straight away

Met this dude who was going back too his name is Ethan

We began to talk, we had the same interest

Funny how both of us are anime geeks and

Felt like we've known each other for a long time

Guess you meet good people in hard times

But the truth is that they are hard to find

Next morning we arrived back in Joburg

The weather was calm and time seemed slower

Before we parted ways we exchanged contacts

With the hope that one day we'll come back

Then I got an email from Swaziland embassy

"We are now open" is what they were telling me

Applied in Pretoria the very next day

Got there on time and I didn't hesitate

After I applied they told me to wait

Checked out Monument Park to time away

Then I got my interview scheduled next week

Packed all my luggage, I prayed on my knees

Arrived in Swazi, I found somewhere to sleep

Payed for a night I was tired and weak

Interview next day, I arrived early

Couldn't believe what security told me

That they were closed so they had to postpone it

I was so vexed man, couldn't even hold it

Now I had to stay here for another week

I had nowhere to sleep so I went to KFC

Until they almost closed and a man noticed me

He asked me what's wrong and then I explained

He let me stay with him and I'm grateful till this day

Finally the day for my interview came

Then I got my Visa man I had to celebrate

So I booked a flight and I flew to USA

Joined a summer camp that was in Connecticut

Made some friends and we talk till this day

My life changed in ways I cannot explain

Now I'm in college, freshman year

2022 was up and down I swear

But thank God for life that's greatest gift here
