Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Would you let them break us apart?
Would you let them?, 'Ey
Would you let them break our hearts?
Would you let them?
[Verse 2]
Would you let them break us apart?
Would you let them?, 'Ey
Would you let them break our hearts?
Would you let them?
[Verse 3]
Together they can't break, us we are strong
Divide us on the road leads to destruction
Don't you fall a prey to Babylon (No never)
They want to pull us all in different directions
So they take you from the root
And teach you their own truth
Open up your mind
Please don't you be so blind
Not in it for the fame
I'm in it for the love
When it's all said and done
We're more than blood
[Verse 4]
Would you let them break us apart? (Nah)
Would you let them?, 'Ey
Would you let them break our hearts?
Would you let them?
[Verse 5]
Would you let them break us apart?
Would you let them?, 'Ey
Would you let them break our hearts?
Would you let them?
[Verse 6]
But wi nah go take 'dem lesson
Nah go sit down inna dem class
'Pon di road of corruption
Ghetto youths we nah go walk
Jah bless I every step pon di rocky road we march
Always have love inna we heart
But I see it Jah now dis mi positive and sure of
Everyday di rich a get rich and di poor a get poorer
Unite the people in and from the diaspora
No corruption can't come through da door ya
And say again
[Verse 7]
Don't you lose your way
Material couldn't make I dread
We have love and happiness
So we'll be allright
[Verse 8]
Would you let them break us apart? (Nah)
Would you let them?
Would you let them break our hearts?
Would you let them?
[Verse 9]
Would you let them break us apart? (Nah, nah)
Would you let them?
Would you let them break our hearts?
Would you let them?
[Verse 10]
Together they can't break us, we are strong
Divide us on the road leads to destruction
Don't you fall a prey to Babylon (No never)
They want to pull us all in different directions
So they take you from the root
And teach you their own truth
Open up your mind
Please don't you be so blind
I'm not in it for the fame
I'm in it for the love
When it's all said and done
We're more than blood
