I come from the water I crawled upon the shore I left my brothers there I got what I came for
I sucked that hot air in And rolled upon the sand Emerged beneath the sun To be a man.
I come from the water I come from the water That weren't no easy thing It's more than nature It's like my destiny
I stood upon these legs And held my head up high Emerged beneath the sun To start a new life
I come from the water Life in the desert Just to be together The sand forever The same forever It moves beneath me It pulls my body My pulse beats hotter So far from the water
I love to see the sun In spite of all it's done I pray for shade and rain I pray to live again I come from the water
