Did I Hear Wrong

I've finally found a cool patch of sand
I've finally found a cool patch of sand
But it wont last long, the sun will move, and we'll move too

My name's Miguel, my little daughter's soul is dead
My name's Miguel, my little daughter's soul is dead

Don't talk me me 'bout choices
I only did what I had to do
I hear there's freedom over there
Freedom over there
Did I hear wrong?, I hear there's
Freedom over there, freedom over there
Did I hear wrong?

Six empty jugs, see there?
That's where the water ran
Six empty jugs, see there?
That's where the water ran

It was kindness that felt them
But hatred that pulled them out again

I hear there's mercy over there, mercy over there
Did I hear wrong?
I hear there's freedom over there, freedom over there
Did I hear wrong?

If you really wanna know, what I feel is, helpless rage
If you really wanna know, what I feel is, helpless rage
For threatening my baby, for taking her water
What is wrong with you?

I hear there's freedom over there, freedom over there
Did I hear wrong?
I hear there's mercy over there, mercy over there
Did I hear wrong?

I hear there's freedom over there, freedom over there
Did I hear wrong?
Did I hear wrong?
Did I hear wrong?
