Break Us Apart

Break Us Apart
Would you let them tear us apart?
Would you let them?
Would you let them break our hearts?
Would you let them?
Would you let them tear us apart?
Would you let them?
Would you let them break our hearts?
Would you let them?
Together they can't break us, we are strong
Dividing us on the road leads to destruction.
Don't you fall prey to Babylon,
they want to pull us all in different directions.
So they take you from your roots and teach you their own truth
open up your mind, please don't 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!
Would you let them tear us apart?
Would you let them?
Would you let them break our hearts?
Would you let them?
Would you let them tear us apart?
Would you let them?
Would you let them break our hearts?
Would you let them?
Capleton:
But we ain't gonna take their lessons, ain't gonna sit in their class
On the road of corruption, ghetto youth we won't walk
God bless every step on this rocky road we march
always have love in our hearts
but I see it now, I'm positive and sure of
every day the rich get richer and the poor get poorer,
unite the people in and from the diaspora
no corruption can come through that door here
and say it again.
Don't you lose your way, material things couldn't make me change,
We have love and happiness, so we'll be alright.
Would you let them tear us apart?
Would you let them?
Would you let them break our hearts?
Would you let them?
Would you let them tear us apart?
Would you let them?
Would you let them break our hearts?
Would you let them?
Together they can't break us, we are strong
Dividing us on the road leads to destruction.
Don't you fall prey to Babylon,
they want to pull us all in different directions.
So they take you from your roots and teach you their own truth
open up your mind, please don't 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!
