Geoffrey Oryema

Geoffrey Oryema (born 16 April 1953) is an internationally renowned Ugandan musician. In 1977, at the age of 24 and at the height of Idi Amin's power, Oryema was smuggled across the Ugandan border in the trunk of a car, after the death of his father, Erinayo Wilson Oryema, who was a cabinet minister, beginning a life in exile. Today his songs keep alive the languages of his youth - Swahili and Acholi and return to the lost country - the 'clear green land' of Uganda. more »

When I stretched out and closed my eyes
I found I couldn't relax couldn't relax

I stretched out further and took a deep breath
Deep breath dizziness in my head

How long will it take
How long will it take
I watched them pull him away
Until he was out of sight
Far away

As I walked away
I wondered where my mind was going (Going)

How long will it take
How long will it take
How long will it take
How long will it take
The preacher came and prayed for me
And left my life
In the hands of Jesus
Firing squad
He looked at me
Then shot me a smile
Deep breath
Dizziness in my head
Firing squad

I looked again at the soldiers
A chill went up
Up my spine

How long will it take
How long will it take
How long will it take
How long will it take

How long will it take
How long will it take
How long will it take
How long will it take

How long will it take
How long will it take
How long will it take
How long will it take
