lyrics
Brothers & sisters, we must be united
Brothers & sisters, we must be united
Brothers & sisters, we must be united
No more barriers, we must be united
No more barriers, we must be united
Children are crying and mothers are dying
They no have food to eat
They no have water to drink
They no have money to survive
In this crazy world of poverty and of calamity yeah
In this crazy world of poverty and of calamity yeah
We don’t want more war, no more war,
We don’t want more poverty, poverty,
We don’t want more lies,
We must be united
We must be united
Brothers & sisters, we must be united
Brothers & sisters, we must be united
No more barriers, we must be united
No more barriers, we must be united
Children are screaming and mothers are suffering,
They no have house to live
They no have clothes to clean
They no have rights to fight again & again
In this crazy world of poverty and of calamity yeah
In this crazy world of poverty and of calamity yeah
We don’t want more injustice, no more injustice
We don’t want more guns, no more guns
We don’t want more violence, violence
We must be united
We must be united
Brothers & sisters, we must be united
Brothers & sisters, we must be united
No more barriers, we must be united
No more barriers, we must be united
