Yeah, yeah, yeah
When the sky falls and the earth quakes
We gon' put this back together, we won't break
When the sky falls and the earth quakes
We gon' put this back together, we won't break
Sak Pase, my Port-Au-Princes
My Haitian gods and all of my princesses
Our condolences as you fighting against this
We're right by your side while we trying to make sense of this
Heavenly father help us see through these problems
And for those that's left, accept them into your garden
So here's my theory, the country's already starving
So we sacrificed many to shed light on all of them
God please pardon, I speak from the heart
It's the only way I see this tragedy befall on them
So let's get involved with them, hand to hand with them
Arm to arm with them 'til they get strong again
When the sky falls
Can't wait until tomorrow (Yeah)
Can't wait until tomorrow
Haiti a mi amor (Uh-huh)
Haiti, mon amour (Uh-uh)
Not gonna leave you stranded
Oh no, oh no, oh no
When the sky falls and the earth quakes
We gon' put this back together, we won't break
When the sky falls and the earth quakes
We gon' put this back together, we won't break
Learn from the past, New Orleans was flooded
So we know we just can't rely on the government
We under the rubble again, here we go rumbling when
When we gon' catch a break, my friend lost his mother, and then
And then, Carline lost her uncles and them
Buried with no caskets, they just put covers on them
And the tears fall, and we fight back
Story can't end, no, not like that
Nah, not like this, tomorrow's survivors gonna carry on your name
You live on inside us, your memory's alive with us
You inspired us, to rebuild this country, you just guide us
Can't wait until tomorrow (Yeah)
Can't wait until tomorrow
Haiti a mi amor (Yeah)
Haiti, mon amour (Yeah, uh-huh)
Not gonna leave you stranded (Yeah, uh-huh)
Not gonna leave you stranded
Oh no, oh no (Uh-huh, no, no)
It's not the angels that are on their way
It's not the bells of Santa Trinita
The people waiting in positions vacant
For hands to help, not just to pray
Aye, aye, aye
Haiti a mi amor (Hey, yeah)
Haiti, mon amour (Yeah, uh-huh)
Not gonna leave you stranded (Yeah, uh-huh, yeah, yeah)
Not gonna leave you stranded (Oh no, no)
Oh no
Oh no
Haïti va s'élever
Tu vas te relever (Oh no)
Nous nous élèverons
Ensemble, ensemble, ensemble
Not gonna leave you stranded
Not gonna leave you stranded
Oh no
We gon' put this back together, we won't break
When the sky falls and the earth quakes
We gon' put this back together, we won't break
