[Philip Lawrence, K’naan, Young Artists for Haiti - Wavin Flag lyrics]
When I get older I will be stronger they'll
Call me freedom just like a wavin' flag
(K'NAAN) born from a throne
Older than Rome but violent prone
Poor people zone
(Nelly Furtado) but it's my home
All I have Known (Sam Roberts)
Where I got grown but now it's gone
(Avril Lavigne) out of the darkness
In came the carnage
Threatening my very survival
(Pierre Bouvier) fractured my strrets
And broke all my dreams
(Tyler Connolly) now feals like defeat
To wretched retreat
(All&Kardinal Offishall) so we struggling
Fighting to eat and we wondering
If we'll be free
(Jully Black) we cannot wait
For some faithful day it's to far away
So right now I say
When I get older i will be stronger
They'll call me freedom
Just like a wavin' flag
And then it goes back ohhh
(Lights) so many wars settling scores
(Deryck Whibley)
All that we've been through
And now there is more
(Serena Ryder) i hear them say
Love is the way
(Jacob Hoggard) love is the answer
That's what they say
(Emily Haines) but we're not just dreamers
Of broken down grievers (Hawksley Workman)
A hand will reach us and we will not se ya
(Drake) this can't contorl us
No it can't hold us down
(Chin Injeti) we gonna pick it up
Even though we still
(All Pierre Lapointe) strugglin'
Au nom de la survie and we wonderin
Batant pour nos vies
(Esthero, Corb Lund) who patiently wait
For some other day
(Esthero, FeFe Dobson) that's to far away
So right now I say
(All) when I get older
I will be stronger they'll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
And then it goes back ohhhh
(Drake) uhall right
How come when the media stop covering
And it's a little help from the government
And we forget about the
People still strugglin
And soon then it's really all love again
Nah see we don't have to wait
For things to break apart
If you weren't involved before
It's never to late to start
You probably think that it's to far
To even have to care
Well take a look at where you live
What if it happened there
You have to know the urge to
Make a change lies within
And we can be the reason that
They see they're flag rise again
(Nikki Yanofsky, Drake) when I get older
I will be stronger they'll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
And then it goes back and then it goes back
And then it goes back
(All) when I get older
I will be stronger they'll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
And then it goes back ohhhh
(Justin Beiber) when I get older
When I get older i will be stronger
Just like a waving flag
Call me freedom just like a wavin' flag
(K'NAAN) born from a throne
Older than Rome but violent prone
Poor people zone
(Nelly Furtado) but it's my home
All I have Known (Sam Roberts)
Where I got grown but now it's gone
