Raef - Home #WeAreHome | Official Music Video
- 5 years ago
The story of how its diverse communities made America a great nation.
Join Raef as he walks through a tapestry of history, meeting immigrants of all stripes that built America. The Italian fishermen, Native American farmers, Chinese rail-workers, Mexican Vaqueros, African Slaves, Jewish filmmakers, Irish authors, Japanese-American soldiers, Arab auto-workers, and many more are celebrated in this video...…a song about the uniqueness of the American story - this land was made for you AND me.

Born in Washington DC and raised in Maryland, Raef has shared his music with faith-based communities across the world. In the early 2000s, he sang tenor in a college a cappella group and played his acoustic guitar at local coffee shops. Raef was introduced to the national stage after his trio rock-band "Great Seneca" toured the United States as part of the "Voices for Change" initiative. Shortly afterwards, Raef joined the "Poetic Vision Tour" - a band of traveling musicians and poets dedicated to inspiring a spiritual and cultural renewal. More recently, Raef started working with Awakening Records and in 2014 released his award winning debut album "The Path" , a collection of songs that reflects his identity as an American Muslim and his journey throughout the years.

"Home" Lyrics:
I’ve been through sunshine
Made friends with the moonlight
Traveled the ancient lands
And sailed across the seas
I’m free when I think and fight for what’s right
Ain't nobody gonna tread on me
A place I’d call mine and yours forever
This land was made for you and me, yeah!
Chorus:
Ain't no place like home, they say
Home is where the heart is, home is where your love is
Ain't no place like home where I’ll be me, me, me, yeah!
Ain't no place like home, they say
Home is where the heart is, home is where your love is
Ain't no place like home where I’ll be free, free, free, yeah!
Our lakes they praise the Great
Through the Mississippi valley
Our smiles they shine from sea to sea
In Him we’ll all trust, be free forever
Home of the brave is where I’ll be
From York that’s all new, to the city of Angels,
God bless this land for you and me, yeah!
CHORUS
All I know is: Love can feel so good
When we know it brings us close to
Home-sweet-home where
Your mind can set you free… Yeah!
CHORUS
Lyrics: Raef
Melody: Raef & Maher Zain
Arrangement: Maher Zain
