Verse 1 | Kenbe La Listen, this could happen to your kid… Wake up and ya life collapsin Everything around you is fallin, crashin Didn’t have much but now they got nothin, Except for hope, doesnt that mean something? They screamin we got no leaders How can we learn if we got no teachers? Where can I sleep if my home in pieces? Who gonna help if the world can’t reach us? The answer is loud and clear You and me it starts right here Give back to the ones in need Turn those nightmares into dreams So we can help them through their fight We can reach into their lives Everyone stand side by side Unity starts with U N I |
Verse 2 | L’Union Fait la Force x 4 Open ya heart Open ya mind Listen up people now is the time To make that difference, make that stand You got the power Its in your hands These children are holding on Believing one day they can stand strong Be free to express themselves, Picture that, I can see it now Educated young Haitians Rebuilding a strong foundation Creating a brand new nation Standing tall, and makin statements, Like, Hello world, here we are, One proud culture saying Kenbe La! yea! So come on world here we are Everybody now singing out Kenbe La! |
Verse 3 | L’Union Fait la Force x 4 Unity creates strength! And one day Haiti will rise again! A safer place for all the children A home for the future generation What I’m sayin is! Unity creates strength – come on! Unity creates strength – everybody now Time to start the movement – because! Unity creates strength! Never give up – Kenbe La |
