Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's 11:59 and 59 seconds
If I'm gonna die tonight, I want Heaven
Ay, ay, with you
It's 11:59 and 59 seconds
If I'm gonna die tonight, I want Heaven
Ay, ay, with you
[Verse 2]
It was 11:59 and 59 clicks
The whole world's burnin', but the clock just ticks
Over and over, every single day
Some people steal, while other people pray
To God, to man, machines or whatever
Some of us just lost faith altogether
"No way," they say, "It can't be this way"
That's why so many people stand up and say
[Verse 3]
One love, one blood
One heart, one soul and
One drum and only one rhythm
One tribe and all of us singin'
[Verse 4]
It's 11:59 and 59 seconds
If I'm gonna die tonight, I want Heaven
Ay, ay, with you (I wanna rock with you)
It's 11:59 and 59 seconds
If I'm gonna die tonight, I want Heaven
Ay, ay, with you (I wanna rock with you)
[Verse 5]
It was 11:59 and 59 clicks
Life's a cord plugged in, the whole world's sick
Got diseases excited, they crawled up inside us
Super-stupid-itis, philosophies that divide us
Keep us in fear from one another
So we can't recognize a brother from another mother
No way, we can't live this way
That's why so many people stand up and say
[Verse 6]
One love, one blood
One heart, one soul and
One drum and only one rhythm
One tribe and all of us singin'
[Verse 7]
It's 11:59 and 59 seconds
If I'm gonna die tonight, I want Heaven
Ay, ay, with you (I wanna rock with you)
It's 11:59 and 59 seconds
If I'm gonna die tonight, I want Heaven
Ay, ay, with you (I wanna rock with you)
[Verse 8]
Ay, I wanna rock with you
I wanna rock with you
Till the day I die, till the day I die
I wanna rock with you till the day I die
[Verse 9]
It was 11:59 and 59 clicks
The whole world's burnin', but the clock just ticks
Some people cry, others occupy
Throw your hands high as the bullets fly by
I dry my eyes, others wonder why
But I just wanna be with you until the day I die
[Verse 10]
One love, one blood
One heart, one soul and
One drum and only one rhythm
One tribe and all of us singin'
[Verse 11]
It's 11:59 and 59 seconds
If I'm gonna die tonight, I want Heaven
Ay, ay, with you (I wanna rock with you)
It's 11:59 and 59 seconds
If I'm gonna die tonight, I want Heaven
Ay, ay, with you (I wanna rock with you)
It's 11:59 and 59 seconds
If I'm gonna die tonight, I want Heaven
Ay, ay, with you (I wanna rock with you)
[Verse 12]
It's 11:59 and 59 seconds
If I'm gonna die tonight, I want Heaven
Ay, ay, with you
