I'm on my way in a foreign land
The crime rate's up to 25 percent
Dis sident people every where
And I can't find no comfort here
All alone
No one's there to help me
No control
There's no one I can trust
Cause they were running in the dust
Cause they were running in the dust
I'm walking through the streets with a strangers look
Their eyes staring at me as the darkness cooks
They ask me for a dollar a gun behind their back
Their faces switch from friendly to attack
All alone
No one's there to help me
No control
There's no one I can trust
Cause they were running in the dust
Cause they were running in the dust
I miss my country my friends my family
I will struggle to go home
I'm set_tled for peace now step out of in sanity
But my dream has ended in a blast
Standing here alone in this blood stained land
As I realized danger's close at hand
A gunshot kills the sound of silence
And angel's life has ended up by violence
Cause they were running in the dust
Cause they were running in the dust
Cause they were running in the dust
Running in the dust
dust
