lyrics
(Lyla June)
The paradox of oneness
One integrated system
Yet diversity is what keeps the system living
We will not know peace until we celebrate the differences
No hierarchy in God’s kingdom, neither no supremacists
All people, all equal, so basic, so simple
One day the world will wake and we will all surrender
Give up the guns for the power of love
No we’re never giving up, ‘til we see the rising sun and move as
One
Reparations for the past hurt
One
Decolonization of the whole world
One
Healing up the generations, walk as
One
One love, many nations, move as one
(Erik Rabasca)
...in constant motion, all people can live harmonious
But too much suffering reverates all era’s moments
Parents struggle though they think their motive’s true
while inheriting every single breath of ancestral rule
All answers lie within to mend our generational sins
Children healing awakens our past transgressions
Recognize the shame of history, let it pass through
Breath together, exhale, give voice to the truth as
One
Reparations for the past hurt
One
Decolonization of the whole world
One
Healing up the generations, walk as
One
One love, many nations, move as one
(Kwadjo Spiri)
The oneness is the truth
The fact that you force to deny your realest feelings about brotherhood is the proof
I still gotta a 1000 more proofs
I summarize it in a hook
One love, blessings to the nations, one Supreme many faces, celebrating our oneness and diverse nature the way forward
Agglomerations of the same reality, longevity of the truth of love is what we need
People Let us together breathe oneness, sow the seeds, we be watering, harvest grains of Peace-loving people
Drop the imaginary lines separating us making you less of a brother to me; black or white we all bleed
Truth be told, you and I gotta be bold beyond our differences and step up for humanity
One
Reparations for the past hurt
One
Decolonization of the whole world
One
Healing up the generations, walk as
One
One love, many nations, move as one
