Walls They Made

Intro

Mm-mm

Oh-oh

Mm-hmm

Verse 1

I was raised on a narrow street

Told who to love and who to greet

Mama said don't cross that line

But the line was drawn by hands not mine

Every wall they built with fear

Kept a good friend far from here

Chorus

Love is stronger than the walls they made

Love is stronger

Every color in the sun

Every daughter every son

Love is stronger than the walls they made

Post-Chorus

One heart

One heart

One heart beating

Verse 2

Sit beside me share your bread

Tell me stories from your land

I will listen I will learn

Every scar and every turn

Strangers become brothers when

We see the human in a name

Chorus

Love is stronger than the walls they made

Love is stronger

Let the drum and voices rise

See the world through kinder eyes

Love is stronger than the walls they made

Post-Chorus

Come on

Come on

Come on singing

Verse 3

When they shout I will not hide

When they push I stand beside

Silence is a heavy load

So we carry it no more

Hand in hand we walk the road

Hand in hand we open doors

Chorus

Love is stronger than the walls they made

Love is stronger

Rise up rise up everyone

We are many we are one

Love is stronger than the walls they made

(We are one)

(We are one)

(We are one)

Bridge

Different tongues and different skin

Still the same heart deep within

Different songs and different drums

Still the same blood still the same sun

Verse 4

Let the children run and play

Teach them kindness not the old ways

Let them see a world that's wide

Every face a friend inside

What we build we build with care

So they inherit open air

Final Chorus

Love is stronger than the walls they made

Love is stronger

Lift it high and let it ring

Every voice and everything

Love is stronger than the walls they made

(Sing it out)

(Sing it out)

(One love one heart)

Outro

One heart

One heart

Oh-oh

Mm
