Citizens of the World
Unifying Anthems: Citizens Rallying for Global Harmony
Lyrics
Hold on
Expression encouraging perseverance or resilience.
We're going far
Emphasis on a journey or progress.
Hold on
Reiteration of the encouragement to hold on.
Cause change will come
Anticipation of positive transformation.
Listen to your heart
Encouragement to listen to one's feelings or conscience.
The time is now to take a stand
Call to take a proactive stance in the present moment.
We're fighting wars
Acknowledgment of global conflicts or struggles.
But can't feed the poor around the world
Observation of disparity, where wars coexist with poverty.
Children dying every morning and night
Highlighting the tragic reality of child mortality.
This is not my war
Personal disassociation from a specific conflict.
So what are we fighting for
Raising the question of the purpose or justification of conflicts.
I fight for peace in the Middle East
Expressing a commitment to achieving peace in the Middle East.
I fight for love all over the Earth
Expressing a broader commitment to spreading love globally.
Every single corner
Suggesting a need for unity in all parts of the world.
Take away those borders
Advocating for the removal of divisive boundaries.
Cause we're all
Emphasizing a shared identity.
We're citizens of the world
Assertion of a global citizenship.
We're citizens of the world
Repetition emphasizing the idea of global citizenship.
We're citizens of the world
Reiteration of the concept of global citizenship.
Two wrongs won't make it right
Caution against responding to wrongs with further wrongs.
Bombs drop down and the people can't fight back
Describing the impact of warfare on defenseless populations.
War in the poorest of lands
Highlighting conflicts in economically disadvantaged regions.
But they've got oil and there's money to be had
Suggesting economic motives behind conflicts.
I fight for hope that one day all the people come together
Expressing hope for global unity in the future.
Put down those guns and ground those drones
Advocating for the cessation of armed conflict.
I fight for peace in the Middle East
Reiteration of the commitment to peace in the Middle East.
I fight for love all over the earth
Reiteration of the commitment to spreading love globally.
Every single corner
Emphasizing the universality of love.
Take away those borders
Advocating for the elimination of artificial boundaries.
Cause we're all
Reaffirmation of shared global identity.
We're citizens of the world
Assertion of global citizenship.
We're citizens of the world
Repetition underscoring the idea of global citizenship.
We're citizens of the world
Reiteration of the concept of global citizenship.
