Better Together Songtext

Better Together Songtext
I was born where the ocean meets the sky
Durban waves, warm sun in my eyes
Got a paper that says where I came from
But tell me now, does that change who I′ve become?
We all got hearts that beat the same
Red runs deep in every vein
If we draw these lines, we build these walls
Then tell me who are we after all?
There's only one race
The human race
We′re standing here in the same place
Why are we fighting?
Why the divide?
Let rise together side by side
I see your story
I hear your pain
The past still lingers, echoes remain
But if we keep tearing the ground apart
We'll never find a brand new start
We all got hearts that beat the same
Red runs deep in every vein
If we draw these lines, we build these walls
Then tell me who are we after all?
There's only one race
The human race
We′re standing here in the same place
Why are we fighting?
Why the divide?
Let′s rise together side by side
Oh let break these chains
(Oh, oh, oh)
Oh no more the same
(Oh, oh, oh)
Oh let take this land
And build it up with our own hands
We know it's true
A brighter world starts with me and you
South Africa′s home, yours and mine
Let's walk together, leave the past behind
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Yeah
I see your story
I hear your pain
The past still lingers
Echoes remain
But if we keep tearing
The ground apart
We′ll never find
A brand new start
We all got hearts that beat the same
Red-blooded world
Starts with me and you
South Africa's home, yours and mine
Let′s walk together, leave the past behind
Durban waves, warm sun in my eyes
Got a paper that says where I came from
But tell me now, does that change who I′ve become?
We all got hearts that beat the same
Red runs deep in every vein
If we draw these lines, we build these walls
Then tell me who are we after all?
There's only one race
The human race
We′re standing here in the same place
Why are we fighting?
Why the divide?
Let rise together side by side
I see your story
I hear your pain
The past still lingers, echoes remain
But if we keep tearing the ground apart
We'll never find a brand new start
We all got hearts that beat the same
Red runs deep in every vein
If we draw these lines, we build these walls
Then tell me who are we after all?
There's only one race
The human race
We′re standing here in the same place
Why are we fighting?
Why the divide?
Let′s rise together side by side
Oh let break these chains
(Oh, oh, oh)
Oh no more the same
(Oh, oh, oh)
Oh let take this land
And build it up with our own hands
We know it's true
A brighter world starts with me and you
South Africa′s home, yours and mine
Let's walk together, leave the past behind
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Yeah
I see your story
I hear your pain
The past still lingers
Echoes remain
But if we keep tearing
The ground apart
We′ll never find
A brand new start
We all got hearts that beat the same
Red-blooded world
Starts with me and you
South Africa's home, yours and mine
Let′s walk together, leave the past behind
