about

内 The Uchi Project celebrates family, love and the stories of our own ‘inner home’. Find out more at: www.uchi.world

Paying homage to Calista’s Japanese roots and her Mother’s maiden name 山ノ内 ‘Yamauchi’ (home inside mountains), Uchi celebrates the homes we carry within us.

Soon to become a mother herself, Calista was inspired by doing workshops with Migrant Help’s mother and baby groups. The Uchi project is being released to celebrate Refugee Week 2021 and Team Uchi are doing musical workshops with the families and children in Migrant Help’s care.

To find out more about Migrant Help and the amazing work they do, please visit: www.migranthelpuk.org

Bring on the #UchiLove! ♡

lyrics

Chorus:

Yama yama, Inner mountain,
Uchi Uchi, We belong,
Sister, Teacher, Nice to meet ya,
Uchi Uchi Love! (repeat)

Verse 1:

Come hand me down, Move me around,
In this old town, I hold these picture memories,
But then we leave, I look around,
I am lost, Floating out at sea.

Like a butterfly,
Give us wings and we will fly…

Chorus

Verse 2:

It doesn’t matter where you’re from,
We’re all human, Superhuman,
And we don’t have to walk alone,
Call a stranger, Fellow neighbour your home, You’re home.

My home is within me, I carry it with me (x2)

Chorus
