# SPIRITS ARE ALIVE [Intro] Listen to the wind... Listen to the heartbeat... The spirits are alive... Just believe... One nation.. One people... Lord have merci.. Jah Rastafari... [Verse 1] I feel the morning breeze upon my face Something in the silence take me to a higher place Ancient voices whisper softly through the trees Reminding I and I that we are never truly free from these Memories of those who walked before Their wisdom still knocking at the door Though their footsteps disappear from sight Their spirit still shining in the morning light [Pre-Chorus] Can you feel it? Can you hear it? Something moving through the air Close your eyes now Open your heart You will know that they are there [Chorus] THE SPIRITS ARE ALIVE! Living in the heartbeat Living in the soul THE SPIRITS ARE ALIVE! Guiding every step When the road get cold From generation to generation The fire never die THE SPIRITS ARE ALIVE! They're living in the people They're living in the sky [Verse 2] Mi hear the drum talk deep beneath the moon Ancient rhythm rising like a sacred tune Every beat carry a story from long ago Every note remind we where we come from and where we go Grandmother's wisdom Father's guiding hand Stories of the struggle Passed from land to land We carry their courage We carry their name The body may perish But the spirit remain [Pre-Chorus] Can you feel it? Can you hear it? Something moving through the air Close your eyes now Open your heart You will know that they are there [Chorus] THE SPIRITS ARE ALIVE! Living in the heartbeat Living in the soul THE SPIRITS ARE ALIVE! Guiding every step When the road get cold From generation to generation The fire never die THE SPIRITS ARE ALIVE! They're living in the people They're living in the sky [Bridge] When the night get darker And you feel alone Remember all the footsteps That brought you to your own Every tear that fell Every prayer that rose Every hand that helped you Every heart that chose Love over hatred Truth over lies The spirit keep living The spirit never dies [Instrumental Break] [Warm Hammond organ bubble + Nyabinghi percussion + soulful guitar skank + gentle horns] [Verse 3] So mi give thanks for the ones before For every sacrifice and every open door Mi carry their light wherever mi may roam Because the spirit of the ancestors make the heart a home We are not forgotten We are part of the stream Yesterday, tomorrow And everything between The journey keep moving The story still write And the flame keep burning Through the darkness of night [Final Chorus] THE SPIRITS ARE ALIVE! Living in the heartbeat Living in the soul THE SPIRITS ARE ALIVE! Guiding every step When the road get cold From generation to generation The fire never die THE SPIRITS ARE ALIVE! They're living in the people They're living in the sky [Outro] The spirits are alive... In every heartbeat... In every child... In every memory... In every dream... The spirit never dies... The spirits are alive... Jah guide I and I...
