The moment when you are forced to leave your birth town, you
become homeless. And the non-ending desperate search for a hometown overshadows
your entire life. Especially when you end up in a foreign, narrow-minded
country in which traditions, hospitality, generosity, compassion and kindness
are nothing but meaningless words and you have to constantly fight against
bullying, discrimination and racism to survive!
HomeTown is dedicated to everyone who is suffering in silence
while feeling unwelcomed, excluded, lost and lonely in a foreign country far
away from home and family.
HOMETOWN, LILY AMIS FEAT. THIR13EEN
Das
Gefühl von Heimat, Schutz und Zugehörigkeit
ist
was ich mir wünsche schon seit einer Ewigkeit
Kann
meine Sehnsucht nicht mehr verbergen
Will
weiter fliegen über alle Berge
Today is one
of those days, when I need to escape
As I sit on
this bench right next to a lake
I’m looking
for a hometown
Ever since I
left my birth town
Feeling
unwelcomed right from minute one
Some thirty
years ago, unseen and unheard
Wasted precious
years in a crowded town
As empty and
loveless as a ghost town
Heimat, Heimat, Wo ist meine Heimat?
I
live my sweet dream and desire
Open
my wings and visualize myself flying higher
Like
a little bird from town to town
See myself living
in a magical Hallmark movie
All year
round in a magical town, a magical place
where neighbors
don’t live past each other
But together
looking after one another
Like in a heartwarming
fairytale where traditions still matter
Hometown,
Hometown, Where is my hometown?
I keep
asking all year round
Trapped in a
bitter reality in a foreign country
missing the
smell of freedom, love and family
Heimat, Heimat, Wo ist meine Heimat?
I
live my sweet dream and desire
Open
my wings and visualize myself flying higher
Like
a little bird from town to town
Heimat, Heimat, Wo ist meine Heimat?
I
live my sweet dream and desire
Open
my wings and visualize myself flying higher
Like
a little bird from town to town
My dream of
belonging is killing me
The desire
of togetherness is burning me
Don’t wane
wake up and live in reality
My search goes
on and on and
I keep
dreaming of MY hometown
