L'Union Fait La Force.
Yeah.
Or our peep Jimmy O
From the ashes we shall rise.
(FanFan)
Young Clef, to my country of Haiti.

Hold on, be strong. No matter what you're goin' through
You know it's gonna be okay [okay] today.
Even when the earth quakes.

Like I said on BET
From the hood the projects to the mansion,
So you got no excuse stop blamin' the recession
Go hard after Haiti
Send a text on your phone, Y-E-L-E 5-0-1 5-0-1

Every block, every school, dream initiation
Say we wanna make it a better place like Michael Jackson
We don't wanna see another man loved lost out there.

Wish I had talked to them teenagers, with them rpg's
Goin' on ahead with the navy seals
I would've told them listen better.

Hold on, (there's gotta be a better way) be strong.
No matter what your goin through
You know it's gonna be okay [okay] today [today].
Even when the earth quakes.
We gotta hold on [hold on] be strong [be strong]
I know that you don't think that I can read your palms
But I see the dawn [the dawn] beyond
You know I can see the sunlight.

And if the rain falls down,
It ain't nothin' but a bless day today
The sun will shine after the rain dries.

[Mavado]
To all my thugs that dawn, memories live on
I guess, see you at the crossroad.
So many cry when we die and they wonder if
We're in the sky. See you at the crossroad.
I see you in my dream that man that can't see
But don't worry, see you at the crossroad.
Remember we still a team and I know you
Can hear me now. See you at the crossroad.

Hold on (there's gotta be a better way) be strong
No matter what you're goin' through
You know it's gonna be okay [okay] today [today]
Even when the earth quakes.
We gotta hold on, [hold on] be strong [be strong]
Know that you don't think that I can read your palms
But I see the dawn [the dawn] beyond
You know I can see the sunlight.

And if the rain falls down,
It ain't nothin' but a bless day today
The sun will shine after the rain dries.

She wants to know, she wanna know how long I been playin'
As long as my momma, as long as my momma she been prayin'
She bought me a guitar, she bought me a guitar at 11
She ain't want me be use mac 11's
So when I sing, so when I said daddy was gone til November
I knew that he wouldn't be back in November
Cause I could've been the one in the bank with the shank
With the pump with the ski mask
Oh my bank is a stage, my 12 gage is black.

Hold on, (you gotta find a better way) be strong
No matter what your goin' through
You know it's gonna be okay [okay] today [today]
Even when the earth quakes.
We gotta hold on [hold on] be strong [be strong]
Know that you don't think that I can read your palms
But I see the dawn [the dawn] beyond
You know I can see the sunlight.

And if the rain falls down,
It ain't nothin' but a bless day today
The sun will shine after the rain dries

And if the rain falls down,
It ain't nothin' but a bless day today
The sun will shine after the rain dries.
