Lyrics
Paramaribo Prince
Words/Music - D.Lee
He wears the badge of the family name
Trained to be a grown man from a very young age
No time for emotion
There were grades to be got
He saw white from the books the Europeans taught
Tragedy fell onto his littlest kin
The prince's heart shattered
Guilt eating within
This would last through the years, dark shadow deep
He always held my hand when we were crossing the street
I just want to be loved when I go away
He arrived by bird to the metal tower
Ice cold to the touch, he was waiting for hours
First coat from the rack with the cheapest of tags
He bought a sandwich for a quarter the american way
Found friends in all places they would take him in
All shape size and age every colour of skin
He's a lone Surnimese in this city of dreams
Tell mom he's ok and not to worry please
I just want to be loved when I go away
I just want to be loved when I'm here today
Listen to the stories for a glimpse of my life
It's been a long, long time since I felt this right
I've lived a lot of different places since I left your home
Now I'm full grown king, mama, on my own
Now I'm full grown king standing on my own
