“This Is Who We Are”

This is who we are” — A song commissioned by Barbados Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley to help Barbadians through the current COVID-19 pandemic. I admire her leadership. She is my idol. 

Yeah
Throughout the world
its a time that seems so down
inside we’re closer, not apart
the sun still shines in our hearts (ay)
it’s our world
we must hold on hand and hand
and lift up our fellow man
showing love in every land

’cause this is who we are


you know we can do this together
this is who we are
spreading love, let love go viral
let the whole world know
we’re spreading love, let love go global
let it overflow
’cause this is who we are


certain not wrong,
so this day choices we make
are for our children’s sake
our future is at stake (yeah)
here’s to show that we all stood at last
we overcame the task
and won the battle at last
’cause this is who we are


separation has brought us closer
’cause this is who we are
nothing breaks the distance between us
let the whole world know
that love is so infectious
let it overflow
’cause this is who we are
you know we can do this together
’cause this is who we are


you gotta let me go
can’t go down, down, make me done so
we have to separate so we can get back together again
and if you’re ready let me go, alright
one world, so we have to live together
one life, lookin’ out for one another
one love, for my sister and my brother
even if you’re rich or poor or white or black it doesn’t matter


We’ve been tested before, out victorious we came
What we know for sure, we will rise again

Together, better, stronger
When the world closed, our hearts opened
When fear ruled, love also deepened
When borders close, boundaries widen
Theres no choice, in one voice
Let the whole world rejoice, from near and from far
this is who we are


’cause this is who we are
’cause this is who we are
never bridge the distance between us
let the whole world know
that love is also infectious
let it overflow
’cause this is who we are
’cause this is who we are


love will always bring us together
love will always see us through
this is who we are
