Album | Duals |
When the sky falls and the Earth quakes | |
We gon put this back together | |
We won’t break | |
[repeat] | |
[Jay-Z] | |
Sa Pa Sé, my Port-Au-Princes | |
my Haitian Gods and all of my Princesses | |
Our condolences as you fightin’ against this | |
we’re right by your side as we tryin’ to make sense of this | |
heavenly father help us see through these problems | |
and for those that left, accept them into your garden | |
so here’s my theory, the country’s already starvin’ | |
so we sacrificed many to shed light on all of them | |
God please pardon, I speak from the heart | |
its the only way I see this tragedy befall on them | |
so lets get involved with them, hand to hand with them | |
arm to arm with them til they get strong again, | |
When the sky falls… | |
(Rihanna and Bono – hook) | |
Can’t wait until tomorrow | |
Haiti, Mon Amour | |
Haiti, Mon Amour | |
Not gonna leave you stranded, alone, alone | |
oh no | |
[Chorus] | |
When the sky falls and the Earth quakes | |
We gon put this back together | |
We won’t break | |
[repeat] | |
[Jay-Z Verse 2] | |
Learn from the past, New Orleans was flooded | |
So we know we just can’t rely on the government | |
We under the rubble again, here we go rumbling when | |
When we gon catch a break, my friend lost his mother and then | |
And then, Carline lost her uncles and them | |
Buried with no caskets, they just put covers on them | |

And the tears fall, and we fight back | |
Story ain’t done, it can’t end like that | |
Nah not like this, tomorrow’s survivors gonna carry on your name | |
You live on inside us, your memory’s alive with us | |
You inspired us, to rebuild this country, you just guide us | |
[Hook] | |
Can’t wait until tomorrow | |
Haiti, Mon Amour | |
Haiti, Mon Amour | |
Not gonna leave you stranded, alone, alone | |
oh no | |
[Bono] | |
It’s not the angels that are on their way | |
its not the bells of Santa Trinite | |
the people waiting, position vacan | |
for hands to help, not just to pray | |
[Hook] | |
Can’t wait until tomorrow | |
Haiti, Mon Amour | |
Haiti, Mon Amour | |
Not gonna leave you stranded, alone, alone | |
oh no | |
[French singing] | |
Haïti va s’élever | |
Tu vas te relever | |
Nous nous éléverons | |
Ensemble ensemble ensemble | |
(not gonna leave you stranded…) | |
[Jay-Z] | |
