Songtext

by Thorsten French Music for our Brothers and Sistas

(one blood)
(one heart)

we are one family (one family)
from the rock to the pearl (one sea)
no iron chain can hold the tide
we stand as one (stand firm)
we are one family (one family)
across the salt and the deep
the fire burns the same tonight

walking down the prado
the dust on our feet is the same
havana drums meet the kingston bass
a heartbeat that will not stop (never stop)
we see the machine crumbling
the predator is losing breath
our roots go deeper than their walls

we are one family (one family)
from the rock to the pearl (one sea)
no iron chain can hold the tide
we stand as one (stand firm)
we are one family (one family)
across the salt and the deep
the fire burns the same tonight

kingston wind blows north
carrying the smoke of freedom
one water, one history
the oppressor hears the sound
iron gates cannot stay shut (break them down)
look here, brother
look here, sister
the morning belongs to the people

we are one family (one family)
from the rock to the pearl (one sea)
no iron chain can hold the tide
we stand as one (stand firm)

we are one family (one family)
across the salt and the deep
the fire burns the same tonight

havana to kingston (one blood)
kingston to havana (one heart)

the machine is falling
the people are rising

(one family)
(one family)
