How Many More - Kelissa

Seems the world was built on lies

Instead of what is true

Teaching us to be civilized

While they take away our roots

Who’s to blame?

It’s such a shame

And though we always pull through

Is it worth the price that we pay?

To live the life we do

How many more will have to fall

How long will we ignore the ones who call?

Will it take a war for us to

Stand together?

How many more will have to bleed

How long will it take for us to see?

We will never be free if we

We can’t stand together

How many more

How many more

‘Till we stand together

Lets heal the world with our love

What can you contribute?

If you have nothing good to say

Please nuh bodda say den my yute

No one to blame but ourselves

Pointing fingers will not help

We’ve gotta find it in ourselves

To do the best that we can do

How many more will have to fall

How long will we ignore the ones who call?

Will it take a war for us to

Stand together?

How many more will have to bleed

How long will it take for us to see?

We will never be free if we

We can’t stand together

How many more

How many more

‘Till we stand together

Take a look now

At the bigger picture

Go beyond the borders of your mind

You’ll find that I am you

And you are me now

See me for who I am

Without your eyes, Oh

How many more will have to fall

How long will we ignore the ones who call?

Will it take a war for us to

Stand together?

How many more will have to bleed

How long will it take for us to see?

We will never be free if we

We can’t stand together

How many more?

Till we stand together

How many more?
