Long Live Love Songtext
von Ozomatli

No matter what we used to be
No matter what we now are free
From that roller coaster ride
The one that killed our pride
No matter what we used to be
No matter what has come and gone
No matter what was right or wrong
Today we′re standing strong
Blood and scars belong
No matter what has come and gone

Long live love
Long live life
Long live the promise
Long live our high
Long live the future
Long live our past
Long live heart
Long live life
Long live love


From the beginning to the middle to the closure
Searching for a lane and an aim we can shoulder
Nothing to holster
Memories tend to be a heart left out in the open
Out of the coma, shoot to be bolder
Long live love 'cause it makes us closer
No coasting roller coasting hoping
Hoping to focus and open our souls to the notion
Long live love
A creed we can all put in motion
An ocean of blood and scars
We have chosen a world that′s become of the broken
This is the movement
This is the moment
The shift in the poem
A place in time where love can be woven
Today we stand strong in the open
No matter the right or the wrong or the cost

Now who gon' break us down?
Now who gon' break the levy?
Know who′s foolish enough?
Our heart of steel is heavy
Our trauma survived
Our lessons we′ve learned
The more that life strikes the fire
Oh, the harder we burn
And we rise (and we rise)
Like the sky (like the sky)
Bust some heads
Break the dawn
A new age it has come
Long live heart
Long live life
And long live us


Long live love
Long live life
Long live the promise
Long live our high
Long live the future
Long live our past
Long live heart
Long live life
Long live love
