[Jay-Z - Chorus] |
|
When the sky falls and the Earth quakes |
|
We gon put this back together |
|
We won't break |
|
[repeat] |
|
[Jay-Z] |
|
Sa Pa Se, 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 |
|
It's 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] |
|
[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] |
|
[Bono] |
|
It's not the angels that are on their way |
|
It's not the bells of Santa Trinite |
|
The people waiting, positions vacant |
|
For hands to help, not just to pray |
|
[Hook] |
|
[French singing] |
|
Haiti va s'elever |
|
Tu vas te relever |
|
Nous nous eleverons |
|
Ensemble ensemble ensemble |
|
(not gonna leave you stranded...) |
|
[Jay-Z] |
|
We gon put this back together we won't break |
|
We gon put this back together we won't break |
|
We gon put this back together we won't break |
|
We gon put this back together we won't break |
