Intro] [Vocal Drop] ("Real Is Rare....") [Soft piano only] Look at the sunrise… It's still there for all of us Like the beautiful rainbow, They tried to hijack, Fools... Same sky, same breath, same blood in our veins Why does it feel so far away? Let me ask you something… "Let It Go!' [Verse 1] I wake up and I see the sun rise on the same old streets Somebody's hungry, somebody's crying, nobody speaks We built these towers but we broke the bridge between us We got the technology but lost the vision that could clean us We fight over borders like the earth belongs to only a few But the soil doesn't care what colour your passport is too We're running from the truth like it's a stranger at the door While the thing we're looking for was inside us all along [Pre-Chorus] And isn't it strange? — We look up at the same moon But we're living in different worlds inside the same room We know the system's broken, we feel it in our bones Yet we keep on paying the price just to keep a roof and a home [Chorus] What do we see when we look at each other? A stranger? A threat? Or a sister and brother? Why build a wall when we're breathing the same air? Why choose the sword when we know love is the answer there? It's not too late — the healing starts with you Change doesn't come from the top — it starts with what we do One heart at a time, one truth to set us free We're all family. Why can't we see? [Vocal Drop] ("Real Is Rare....") [Verse 2] Leaders talk peace but they sharpen the sword behind closed doors Tell us we're equal while they keep us poor and poor They tell us who to blame so we fight amongst ourselves While they count their gold and hide everything else Black and white divided, neighbour against neighbour Immigrant and native caught up in the same labour We're all just trying to feed our kids and sleep at night Why is that so hard to see in each other's eyes? [Pre-Chorus] And isn't it strange? — We look up at the same stars But we're judging each other by the scars and the bars We want a hero to come and fix it all But the hero we're waiting for is standing in the hall — looking in the mirror [Chorus] What do we see when we look at each other? A stranger? A threat? Or a sister and brother? Why build a wall when we're breathing the same air? Why choose the sword when we know love is the answer there? It's not too late — the healing starts with you Change doesn't come from the top — it starts with what we do One heart at a time, one truth to set us free We're all family, Why can't we see? [Vocal Drop] ("Real Is Rare....") [Bridge] [Slower, soulful, spoken softly] You know… Michael sang it years ago "Heal the world, make it a better place…" He didn't say it would be easy He just said it starts with me — and it starts with you We don't need them to change first We just need to stop looking at what divides us And remember what connects us One race — the human race One breath — one blood — one destiny [Chorus] [Swells, strings rise up] What do we see when we look at each other? A stranger? A threat? Or a sister and brother? Why build a wall when we're breathing the same air? Why choose the sword when we know love is the answer there? It's not too late — the healing starts with you Change doesn't come from the top — it starts with what we do One heart at a time, one truth to set us free We're all family, Please… can't you see? [Vocal Drop] ("Real Is Rare....") [Outro] [Fading out] We're all God's children Beneath the same sky We don't have to be enemies Not tonight. Unite The Kingdom. [END]
